Karisma returning to the silver screen

Karisma returning to the silver screen

With Karisma Kapur moving to Mumbai and expressing a desire to return to the silver screen, there’s constant buzz about her comeback film. The latest rumour is that maverick film maker Ram Gopal Varma might just create a special role for her in his Ram Gopal Varma Ka Sholay.

There’s also buzz that she is vying to make her comeback under the Yash Chopra banner. “Karisma is very keen to work with Aditya and Yash Chopra,” says an industry source. “Unlike Hollywood, here in Bollywood it is not easy to make your mark, post-marriage and motherhood. Kajol is an exception who has broken that stereotype. So, there is hope for Karisma.”

Sometime ago, there was also talk of her father Randhir Kapoor casting her in his next film. However, there has been no development since.

Producer-director Suneel Darshan, who worked with Karisma last in her last film Mere Jeevan Saathi, is optimistic about Karisma’s comeback. “I would definitely cast her if I had the right role for her, a mature part. We’ve had a successful innings together. Kajol has been accepted immensely by the audiences and that’s indicative of the changing and more accepting attitude and taste of the audiences,” says Suneel.
