With her new mega serial launching and the woman turning 33, here's an ode to the absolute 'K'ueen of Indian television soaps – Ekta Kapoor! Let's trace the K-factor that brought her success and fame. We have listed some memorable soaps that started with the letter 'K' and created history for Jeetendra's little daughter.

Kyunkii Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi

Who doesn't know about this one? A favourite at TV awards, this serial has made history by having almost five to six generations in the same house (Wonder what Ba's age is now?). This story about the Virani parivaar has made a lot of things popular – like theplas, Jai Shri Krishna, tulsi (the plant), joint families and so on.

We all know how the country cried when the original Mihir died in the show and got replaced by another one – Inder Kumar, whom we hated. Ekta replaced Inder with Ronit Roy whom we fell in love with, soon enough. And today, though a lot of us might be confused with what is happening on the show since god knows how many characters and generations have happened in the family, we still love the way the serial takes dramatic twists and turns almost every day!

Will Ekta make a reality show?
