Ektaa Kapoor, a prominent figure in the Indian television industry, has produced numerous hit shows that have become household names. However, not all of her productions have achieved the same level of success. Several of her shows have failed to impress audiences and were taken off the air within a few months due to low TRPs.

One such show was "Ajeeb Daastaan Hai Ye," which featured Sonali Bendre in the lead role. Despite Bendre's presence and a progressive storyline, the show failed to capture the audience's attention. The show aired on Life OK and went off the air within five months.

Another show that met a similar fate was "Daayan," a supernatural drama starring Tina Dutta and Mohit Malhotra. The show aired on &TV but failed to impress the audience with its storyline, leading to its cancellation within seven months.

"Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum," starring Karan Kundrra and Saanvi Talwar, also faced an early demise. Similarly, "Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan," a show based on a friendship and love triangle, failed to resonate with viewers. "Bayttaab Dil Kee Tamanna Hai," which featured Sumana Das and Aman Verma, aired on Sony TV and went off the air within four months. The show revolved around the journey of three sisters striving to achieve their goals.

Several factors can contribute to a show's failure, including weak storylines, inability to capture audience interest, and fluctuating viewership numbers. In some cases, a change in programming strategy can also lead to a show's cancellation.

Ektaa Kapoor has also faced controversies related to her web series. Her web series "Triple X-2" sparked controversy for allegedly disrespecting the Indian Army. A scene in the series depicted an army officer's wife insulting his uniform, which led to outrage and accusations of being "anti-national". An FIR was filed against Ektaa Kapoor in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, for allegedly insulting the national emblem, Hindu Gods, and Army personnel in the series. Following the controversy, the scene in question was deleted.

In another instance, Ektaa Kapoor and her mother, Shobha Kapoor, faced legal trouble after being booked under the POCSO Act for allegedly showing inappropriate scenes involving minor girls in an episode of the ALT Balaji web series "Gandi Baat".

Despite facing setbacks and controversies, Ektaa Kapoor remains a significant force in the Indian television industry. She has consistently introduced new talent and produced shows that have left a lasting impact. While some of her shows may have had short runs, others have enjoyed long and successful journeys, becoming staples in the audience's viewing routine.
