Anita Hassanandani's career in films did not take off so she was very depressed. But Ekta Kapoor made her a huge TV star. Ekta Kapoor helped her beat depression. She wrote for Ekta Kapoor, I remember those days when I was young, hungry for work but clueless about everything. I was bitterly affected by my early failures but then you came into my life. You not only helped me fight depression but also gave me a new start. That's one of the millions of things I have learned from you, to never give up. That's why even on rough days, I feel secure because of you my guardian angel. You are in every sense of the world, my life's Niyati. Calling Ekta a friend is an understatement. She is a part of my family and she is my Niyati.
