“For somebody like me who is not doing films actively, but I am still part of the industry, so I think there is a place for like that today for actresses out there so that’s the good thing” she added.
 
 
Karisma, who is the brand ambassador of a leading ethnic wear retailer ‘Neeru’, was yesterday in the national capital to inaugurate ‘Neeru’s first flagship store here. 
 
 
Speaking about her collaboration with the brand, she said “It is an absolute delight to be associated with Neeru’s. This is the name I can trust to endow the classic fusion of traditional and contemporary styles.”

Needless to say, her fans eagerly waiting for her return to the silver screen.
