Career
Debut and early work (1991–1995)
Kapoor made her debut in the 1991 movie Prem Qaidi, which was a semi-hit. Although most of her multiple releases from 1992–1995 failed to do well at the box office, she had some success.[11]
In 1992, Kapoor appeared in the romantic action Jigar the movie garnered good reviews and emerged as a hit.[12] The film marked the first of her many collaborations with Devgan.[13] The following year, Kapoor co-starred in K. Muralimohana Rao's action Anari, the film became successful at the box office with gross earnings of ₹300.1 million (US$3.6 million).[14] In 1994, Kapoor was cast as Madhubala (opposite Govinda) in comedy Raja Babu, the film was poorly received by critics but became an economic success, earning over ₹450 million (US$5.4 million).[15] She next appeared in Andaz Apna Apna, an comedy directed by Rajkumar Santoshi with Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, the movie was an average grosser when it released, it has since gained a strong cult following over the years.[16] In 1995, Kapoor appeared in romantic comedy Coolie No. 1 the feature garnered good reviews and emerged as the highest-grossing Bollywood film grossing ₹910.6 million (US$11 million) in India.[17]
For her acting debut the actress says, "when I first entered the industry, things were made tough for me. I am not saying I was singled out. I think every star son or star daughter has to go through this. Everyone was so unfair to me. Other newcomers were praised for every little achievement but Karisma Kapoor was not given an iota of acknowledgement. When it came to me, it was always, ‘Okay, she has done well but what’s the big deal about Karisma Kapoor?’. Nobody gave a 17-year-old credit for doing her job reasonably well".[18]
Success and critical acclaim (1996–2002)
In 1996, Kapoor played the female lead in Dharmesh Darshan's Raja Hindustani opposite Aamir Khan. The movie was the highest grossing film of the year[19] and she won her first Filmfare Best Actress Award. Karisma Kapoor was first recognised as a serious actor with Dharmesh Darshan's Raja Hindustani, the success of Raja Hindustani established Kapoor as a leading actress of Hindi cinema.[20] After the movie she had become the highest-paid Indian actress to that point earning ₹12 million (US$140,000) per film.[21] Her next release was Raj Kanwar's Jeet alongside Salman Khan, Sunny Deol and Tabu, in which she played Kajal. Upon release, the film emerged as a commercial success.[22]
The following year Kapoor played the bubbly best friend ‘Nisha’ who is sensitive, loving and honest,[23] she won the Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award and the National Film Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Yash Chopra's Musical Romance,[24] Dil To Pagal Hai opposite Shahrukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit. That same year Kapoor appeared in Hero No. 1 the movie is commercial success [25] and has opened to generally positive reviews.[26]
In 1998 she is the first Bollywood Film Star who endorsed international-brand Coca Cola in India.[27]
Her diminutive comeback in 1999 proved to be good as she took part in the year's most successful films. Kapoor starred in four absolute hits. David Dhawan's comedy Biwi No.1 opposite Salman Khan became the biggest hit of the year, the film earned positive notices and several nominations, including for an Filmfare Awards for Best Film.[28] She proved to be successful with comedy films, as David Dhawan's another film Haseena Maan Jaayegi did fairly well at the box office.[29]

In 2000, she won her second Filmfare Best Actress Award for her performance in Khalid Mohammed's Fiza, the movie received critical acclaim [32] but the film under-performed at the box office grossing ₹570.8 million (US$6.8 million) in India.[33] Her performance in the film was highly acclaimed and several critics noted her for showing great emotional range and depth. Mimmy Jain of The Indian Express, in a positive review, wrote, "As the young girl who is sick of the suspense and disruption that her brother's disappearance has caused in her family's life, as the obstinate daughter who will not listen to her mother's plea to let her keep hoping for her son, as the determined sister who keeps on in her hunt for her brother despite all odds and then seeks to keep him on the right path, this is a new Karisma, and one that delivers a superbly flawless performance."[34][35] Planetbollywood.com described Kapoor "A multifaceted actress. Aishwarya Rai has not diminished her demand".[36]
In 2001, she achieved further critical acclaim for her portrayal of the title role in Shyam Benegal's Zubeidaa. The Tribune complimented her by arguing that she "has surpassed herself as the passionate, defiant, wilful and troubled Zubeidaa, the truly modern woman."[37] For her work, she was awarded the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress. She next starred alongside Bobby Deol and Rahul Dev in Indra Kumar's Aashiq the movie received little praise from critics, though proved to be a modest success grossing over ₹260 million (US$3.1 million) domestically.[38][39] Suneel Darshan's social drama Ek Rishtaa: The Bond of Love was Kapoor's next release. Co-starring Amitabh Bachchan and Akshay Kumar, the film was well received by critics and did moderate business at the box office.[40][41]
In 2002, she acted in Shakti - The Power. Kapoor's performance was applauded with critic Taran Adarsh writing, "the power clearly belongs to Karisma Kapoor. Breathing fire and venom to win back her son from the clutches of a despot, the actress gives it all to the character of a helpless mother and proves what a virtuoso performer she is. Playing the part of a wounded tigress, this is one performance that overshadows all the performances the year has seen so far".[42] For her work, she earned several nominations in the Best Actress category. Kapoor final release of 2002 was Indra Kumar's action-thriller Rishtey, with Anil Kapoor and Shilpa Shetty, Kapoor portrayed the beautiful and wealthy Komal a suffering mother. The film was declared a box-office flop in India and overseas, with revenues of ₹220.7 million (US$2.6 million)[43] but kapoor's performance received good reviews and Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama noted "the actress comes up with a sincere performance" [44]

Later in the same year she made her television debut in the Sahara One serial Karishma - The Miracles of Destiny in which she played a dual role of a grandmother and granddaughter.[46] The serial ended after 260 episodes in 2004 and she took a sabbatical from full-time acting for several years.
In 2006, Kapoor was seen in the delayed film Mere Jeevan Saathi opposite Akshay Kumar and Ameesha Patel, in which she played a negative role. The film had been shot and completed in 2003 but delayed for three years. In 2007, Kapoor was seen on Karan Johar's chat show Koffee With Karan, with her sister Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor, she also won the Koffee Award for Best Supporting Appearance.

Recent work (2011–present)
In 2011, Kapoor officially announced she is returning to movies in Vikram Bhatt's next, a 3D film titled Dangerous Ishhq. Her performance received mixed reviews. Komal Nahta commented: "Karisma Kapoor who makes a comeback is profiled in almost every possible manner and given almost every range of acting in this film. Directors notice please! So you have the age-defying mother of two in real life, hopping around in big heals, is eternally decked up with proper make-up and hair romancing, weeping, gun-totting, turning Punjabi, Rajasthani and even Islamic all with stressful accents throughout the film". Times of india commented, "After long, Karisma Kapoor is reincarnated onscreen. Between panic-struck moments and over dramatic emotions, in almost every frame, she seems stuck in the 90s. There are moments of brief intensity where she performs well, but nothing that jumpstarts us back to life".
Kapoor was set to be feature in the remake of Satte Pe Satta opposite Sanjay Dutt which is now shelved.
Personal life
Hailing from a Punjabi family[47] deeply involved in the Bollywood film industry, Kapoor faced the media spotlight from a very young age.

Kapoor was in a relationship with her Jigar co-star Ajay Devgan from 1992 till they broke up in 1995.[48] Karisma was engaged to Abhishek Bachchan and the engagement was announced in October 2002 on the 60th birthday of Abhishek's father, Amitabh Bachchan. Four months later in February 2003, they split up. On 29 September 2003, she married industrialist Sunjay Kapur, CEO of Sixt India. In typical Kapoor tradition, Karisma was married at the home of her grandfather (the late Raj Kapoor): R K Cottage. They opted for an hour-long Sikh wedding ceremony as Sunjay is Sikh. The couple's daughter Samaira was born on 11 March 2005. She then gave birth to their second child, son Kiaan Raj Kapoor on 12 March 2010.

According to media reports, Kapoor is one most versatile and talented actress who appeared in the Hindi film. [64] Commenting on this, director Suneel Darshan "She is one of the most versatile actresses in Bollywood after Madhuri Dixit". According to Indra Kumar "Karisma is the actress today, i will bypass ten other highly popular actresses and zero in on Karisma alone. She is one of the most complete actresses today. Madhuri never did a Fiza or Zubeida in her heydays. Karisma is a step ahead". While discussing her career M.S.M. Desai journaliste wrote "Karisma Kapoor is one actress who has had it all, enjoying both commercial and artistic success. During her decade long career she has done as many as 60 films and has proved her versatility and prowess at both comedy and melodrama with equal ease".[36]
