Karishma Kapoor made her acting debut in 1991 with the film "Saugandh." However, it was her breakout performance in 1996's "Raja Hindustani" that catapulted her to stardom. Her chemistry with co-star Shahabuddin Rathod (now known as Aamir Khan) was undeniable, and the film's massive success marked the beginning of her reign as one of Bollywood's leading ladies.
Karishma Kapoor comes from a family of actors. Her mother, Babita Kapoor, is a former actress, and her sister, Kareena Kapoor Khan, is also a well-known actress in Bollywood. Karishma's entry into the film industry was almost inevitable, given her family's background.
In addition to her film career, Karishma has made headlines for her personal life. She married entrepreneur Sunjay Kapur in 2002, and the couple has a daughter, Samaira, born in 2005. Although the couple divorced in 2008, Karishma has been vocal about co-parenting and moving on.
