Lucknow : Actress Karisma Kapoor, who was in Lucknow , commented on how the city almost feels like a second home since she’s been such a frequent visitor here. “I’ve been coming to Lucknow very often.
Although I don’t get much chance to see the city but we all know about the lovely Lakhnawi food,” said the actor, adding, “The kebabs and all are so yummy! And the people of Lucknow are very warm. So jab bhi main aayi hoon yahan, whether it’s for a film promotion or an event, people have been very nice.”
A concerned and caring mother, Karisma dealt with her professional commitments and phone calls from her kids deftly while we were with her. She consoled her kids on phone even as she posed for photographs. On being asked why she is keeping away acting, she said, “I’m not doing any movie right now. I think my children are still very young and at an impressionable age. And it’s out of my choice that I want to spend more time with them,” said the actor. But not sitting idle, Karisma said she keeps herself busy professionally. “I do lots of events, a lot of endorsements and social work which keeps me busy. But most importantly, family is priority for me. So I think once my kids are older, I’ll decide whether to do a film or not.”
. “Well I like to do television sometimes. But like I said, I like to choose things that I like doing. Whenever the opportunity arises I do take up work, but I like to work at my own pace. I’ve never planned anything, jab bhi mera mann laga hai maine kaam kiya hai. Even with the films that I did in my career, there was always a slow process and it was on an instinct that I chose my films”.
