Upcoming controversial film ‘Love sex aur Dhokha’ producer Ekta Kapoor has been invited to address a gathering of academicians and students of the popular culture at the distinguished Wharton Business School in Pennsylvania.

Ekta says about the speech which she will give on March 27th,”I’ll talk about globalization of the Indian entertainment industry. There will be an extended question – answer session at the end too.”

Ekta will be in the US for ten days and will be combining other business meets along with the Wharton lecture. She was supposed to leave earlier but had to postpone it because of the release of ‘Love Sex aur Dhokha’. The film is getting released on March 12th.

“I didn’t want to miss the release of the film. It’s the most exciting happening in my career since I started the saas-bahu trend so many years ago”, gushes the soap queen.

It seems, Ekta is nervous about the feedback of the audience towards the film. “I am ready for claps and slaps. But no one can be indifferent to the film, that’s for sure. Just watching what Dibakar (Banerjee, the director) and I have done in the film gives me an adrenaline rush”, concludes Ekta.
