Gautami on husband Ram Kapoor's on-screen kiss

During a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan on his YouTube channel, Ram Kapoor's wife Gautami explained, "I got the call at 2.30 am. I was a mother who was breastfeeding at that time. So when I got the call at 2.30-3 am saying that, ‘Listen baby, this is what has happened’, my first reaction was I kept the phone on Ram. I was like, ‘What?’ I kept the phone on Ram. I didn’t even want to think further. I took that time to really reflect on whether it was right for me to bang the phone. Because, see, he was working for a relentless number of hours, day in and day out. There were days when he wouldn’t come home, 24 hours, 48 hours. The workload used to be so much on television. It gave me time to reflect that what am I doing."During the interview, she also addressed the alleged argument between show producer Ektaa Kapoor and Ram Kapoor when Ram Kapoor's statement from one of his podcasts was linked to Ektaa Kapoor's Instagram story. Gautami mentioned that it had been 'just misinterpreted'.

For the unversed, Ram Kapoor's interview last year gained a lot of views for his explanation around the kissing scene. He was heard saying, "Ekta’s the one who wrote the scene, wanted us to do the scene. I told Ekta, ‘Are you sure you want to do this? Television mein kabhi hua nahi (It never happened on television). We were the first kiss of television, which is a big thing. She trusted us. I said, ‘Okay, I’ll first get a go-ahead from my wife… Fir maine Sakshi ko bola ki (then I told Sakshi) look, I will handle Ekta, if you have a problem, tell me….Uske baad jo hua Ekta ne jhela (After that, whatever happened, Ekta faced the heat)." After this, Ektaa Kapoor story where she wrote, "Unprofessional actors giving interviews about my shows shud shut up! False information N skewed stories. Can only last till. I talk’…… but there is dignity in silence," got linked to Ram's interview drawing alleged connection. Gautami also called the producer 'phenomenal maker' and the one with 'a lot of clarity'.
