Returning to the big screen

The actress has signed Vikram Bhatt’s next 3D venture Dangerous Ishq, a supernatural thriller.

Known for her power-packed performances in films like Raja Hindustani, Dil To Pagal Hai, Fiza and Zubeida, Karisma was last seen in Mere Jeevan Saathi in 2006.

Says a source, “Lolo never really announced her retirement even after her marriage to industrialist Sanjay Kapur in 2003. Despite being busy with her domestic life and subsequent motherhood (daughter Samaira was born in 2005, son Kiaan Raj in 2010), Karisma has always had film offers. She has remained a part of the industry by signing many endorsements but has now finally given the nod to Vikram Bhatt’s film. Vikram announced this 3D venture after his film ‘Haunted 3D’ was a success at the box office.”
Said Vikram, “When I first gave Karisma a narration, she loved the story and the script. It’s a woman-centric film and she plays the main character. It is a supernatural thriller based on past-life regression. We start shooting in September in Rajasthan.”

When contacted, Karisma said, “It’s a role I haven’t done before. The script is very interesting and working in the 3D format will be a new experience for me.”
