Eka is also a go-to stylist for fashion powerhouses, Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar. Sharing her experience of styling them,  Eka tells us, "I enjoy that challenge...When I style for films and characters, it is all for the director but when it comes to styling Karan and Ranveer Singh, it is different. They love fashion, they enjoy it, and are passionate about everything they wear. The same energy gets on to me and I enjoy myself when am working with them. I have realized, I love it a lot more than I thought I would. It comes naturally to me and If I get a chance, I would want to style everybody the way they do."

She continued, "It is important for a stylist to know about who their client is and what they are capable of wearing, and what exactly their personality is. Karan and Ranveer are exactly the same, energetic and passionate about clothes."
