Ekta Kaul is popularly known as Riya Mathur from Star Plus’ show Mere Angne Main. She is all set to replace Niti Taylor from the show. There were many names doing the rounds like Sanaya Irani and Pooja Gaur. We can say tat Ekta is the perfect choice for the show. She is also trained in martial arts and knows about self defence. In an interview to TOI, she said that she is not stepping into Niti’s shoes,"I’m not stepping into anybody’s shoes. I am playing the new lead, but my role is very different from Niti’s. She was playing a mild, docile girl who was easily suppressed. My role is that of a tough woman.”
