Karisma Kapoor (born 25 June 1974) is an Indian actress who primarily works in Hindi films.[1] A member of the Kapoor family, she is the daughter of actors Babita and Randhir Kapoor, and the elder sister of actress Kareena Kapoor. One of the most popular and highest-paid actresses of her time, she is the recipient of several accolades, including a National Film Award and four Filmfare Awards.[2]
Kapoor made her acting debut with the film Prem Qaidi in 1991 and subsequently played the leading lady in several box office hits, including Jigar (1992), Anari (1993), Andaz Apna Apna (1994), Raja Babu (1994), Coolie No. 1 (1995), Saajan Chale Sasural (1996), and Jeet (1996). Starring roles in the top-grossing romances Raja Hindustani (1996) and Dil To Pagal Hai (1997), established her as a star. She won the Filmfare Award for Best Actress for the former, and the National Film Award and the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress for the latter.[3]
Kapoor cemented her status by starring in five of David Dhawan's comedies—Judwaa (1997), Hero No.1 (1997), Biwi No.1 (1999), Haseena Maan Jaayegi (1999) and Dulhan Hum Le Jayenge (2000), and the family drama Hum Saath-Saath Hain (1999). In the early 2000s, Kapoor won the Best Actress and Best Actress (Critics) awards at Filmfare for her titular roles in the dramas Fiza (2000) and Zubeidaa (2001), respectively. She took a sabbatical from acting after leading the television soap opera Karishma: The Miracles of Destiny (2003–2004), and has since acted sporadically, starring in the web-series Mentalhood (2020) and the mystery thriller Murder Mubarak (2024).[4]
Kapoor was married to businessman Sanjay Kapoor from 2003 to 2016 – the former couple has two children together. She has featured as a talent judge for several reality shows.[5][6]
