New Delhi [India], April 02: The latest episode of MK Talks, hosted by Mohsin Khan, is making headlines for one bold and controversial statement by Ekta Kapoor — “new stars are depressed.” The remark, delivered candidly during the conversation, sets the tone for an episode that challenges the popular perception of today’s entertainment industry. Ekta Kapoor pointed to a major cultural shift behind this claim. According to her, the new generation of actors has moved away from the once-vibrant social life of Bollywood. With fewer parties, almost no alcohol culture, and an intense focus on fitness, discipline, and yoga, she suggested that young stars are living more restricted and isolated lives, which may be contributing to emotional pressure and burnout. Mohsin Khan, steering the conversation, briefly touched upon her iconic Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, where Ekta reflected on how success earlier came with shared celebration, unlike today’s quieter, more internalized journeys. While the episode also covers her instinct for talent, evolving storytelling, and quick insights into projects like The Dirty Picture and Bhoot Bangla, the core takeaway remains her unfiltered observation about the mental and emotional state of new-age stars. Honest and reflective, this episode of MK Talks shifts the focus from glamour to the quiet intensity shaping the lives of today’s stars.
