Taking to Instagram, International Emmy Awards shared a picture of Ektaa from the red carpet on their stories which they captioned, "The 2023 Directorate Award honoree, Ektaa R Kapoor, walks the red carpet at the #iemmys."

This award holds a special place in my heart, as it signifies a journey that goes beyond mere workit's a pivotal aspect of my personal and professional life. Representing my country on the global stage through this esteemed platform is an incredible honour.
