Life can be surely cruel sometimes!

Just when Ekta Kaul bagged a show making her smile to glory, a recent development has left the girl in a low state completely.

A source from the sets informed us that Ekta’s mother who lives in Jammu has been unwell leaving the girl troubled.

“Ekta’s mom has been keeping ill from quite a long time keeping the girl stressed. She had been juggling with her shooting being really tensed for her mom all this while. But wanting to be close by her, Ekta has finally flown down to Jammu,” shared the source.

When we called Ekta to know about her mother’s health, she averred, “It is a very personal matter and I don’t want to talk about it. All I can say is that the production team has been very understanding to grant me leaves.”

We hear that the girl would be in Jammu for a couple of days before getting back to shoot.

Tellychakkar.com wishes Ekta’s mom speedy recover.

Ekta is currently part of Sony PAL’s Ek Rishta Aisa Bhi (Shashi Sumeet Productions Pvt Ltd).
