Karisma Kapoor is all set to make her digital debut in Balaji/Ekta Kapoor’s Mentalhood, a supposed comedy about the madness of motherhood, where she will be paired with Dino Morea again. They were earlier together in the ill-fated feature film Baaz: A Bird In Danger which was a thundering flop. During the same year (2003) Karisma made an effort to consolidate her doddering career by playing the lead in a long-running television series Karishma: The Miracles Of Destiny which was another huge disaster.

Nine years later, after marriage and two children Karisma made an effort to make a comeback to big-screen acting in Vikram Bhatt’s reincarnation saga Dangerous Ishhq. The project, styled around Karisma’s personality, featured her in four roles. It was a thundering flop. And no more was heard of her acting plans except in interviews where Karishma, while endorsing sundry products, would talk about how she was “considering” various film offers.

Now 7 years after the debacle of Dangerous Ishhq her attempt to return to acting on the OTT platform should be more successful. Friends of the family say Karisma is very keen to return. “Her children are grown up. She has lost a lot of weight and makes sure she us clicked at parties and airports. She has been trying to stay in the limelight through her association with her sister Kareena and brother-in-law Saif Ali Khan. But Lolo (Karisma Kapoor) is getting restless. She wants to come back to acting. But where are the opportunities?” a family friend wonders.
