Taking to Instagram, Ektaa shared a candid picture of Akshay interacting with her father, veteran actor Jeetendra, and reflected on the similarities between the two. In her heartfelt note, she highlighted how both actors embody discipline and unwavering trust in producers.
She wrote that every conversation with Akshay reminds her of her father, emphasizing their shared professionalism and belief in a producer’s vision. According to Ektaa, this rare combination of discipline and respect plays a crucial role in sustaining the film industry.
“Actors Like Them Keep the Industry Thriving”
Ektaa went on to underline the importance of actors who consistently work across multiple projects. Drawing comparisons with legends like Dharmendra, she stated that the industry’s commercial backbone relies on such prolific performers.

“In volume, there is job creation,” she wrote, adding that such actors ensure the industry remains dynamic and inclusive. She concluded her note by thanking Akshay for trusting producers and enabling them to bring their projects to life.
