<p>''When you think of who should play this, Karishma's name does not come in first, because she's known for her romantic roles, her glamour, kind of roles. But that's the very reason why I wanted to cast her. That she is somebody who is, I think, one of the most underrated actors, where she has been typecast in this romantic, glam kind of parts, but she's such a fine actor, that eventually, when I cast her in this, and when she agreed to do it, in the first day itself, the first scene she did itself, I knew that it was the perfect casting.''</p><h3>Karisma Kapoor learned to smoke for the role</h3><p>When asked about Karisma's portrayal of a chain-smoker in the series, Abhinay revealed a surprising behind-the-scenes story, the biggest challenge - smoking, which turned out to be something entirely unexpected.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>''Insight joke was that I didn't realize that, she doesn't smoke. So first I had to teach her how to smoke. The first day went into making sure that she knows how to smoke because she doesn't smoke at all. And the problem is, in films or in series, you can put apple juice in place of alcohol, and we can get away with it. But you can't do that with a cigarette.''</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>''You have to really smoke a cigarette. So I had to teach her how to smoke a cigarette first. But she was convinced and she did it incredibly. And the end, there's no one who will turn around and say that oh, she does not know how to smoke. She smoked on the first day of shoot and on the last day of shoot after that, she's never touched it,'' he said.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Directed by Abhinay Deo, &nbsp;Brown will begin streaming on Zee5 starting June 5, 2026.</p>

Karisma Kapoor returns in the new series Brown. Directed by Abhinay Deo, it casts her in an avatar fans have never seen before. In an exclusive interview, the director revealed why he chose Kapoor to play the role and the funny story of how he had to teach her how to smoke. 

Karisma Kapoor has largely stayed away from the spotlight in recent years, something she has admitted she has been enjoying. Two years after Murder Mubarak, the project that she did only for his friend and the director of the project, Homi Adajania, the actress is making her comeback with the ZEE5 series Brown, where she plays Rita Brown, a character unlike any she has portrayed before. To step into the shoes of the troubled police officer, Karisma underwent a significant transformation. One of the biggest challenges for her was learning how to smoke a cigarette on screen, something she had never done in real life. In an exclusive conversation, director Abhinay Deo opened up about casting Karisma in a role that was completely against the glamorous and romantic image she has been known for throughout her career. He also revealed the lengths she went to in order to transform into Rita Brown, an alcoholic, chain-smoking, emotionally complex police officer. Why Abhinay Deo chose Karisma Kapoor for Brown Curious over why Karishma was chosen for the role, to this Abhinay shared as he explained his casting choice. ''Why I chose Karishma, now that's an interesting story. The whole idea for me was that Karishma was not the, like when you think about who should play this character, what is Rita Brown? Rita Brown is an alcoholic, chain smoker, troubled person, you know, has a lot of baggage, does not wear fitting clothes. She wears loose clothes.'' He added that Karisma was the last person audiences would expect for such a role, which is exactly why he wanted her.

Responding to this, Modi said that instead of her being a gold-digger, he himself is a diamond digger. "There wasn’t a time I went out with Sushmita that I had to pay for anything. She paid for everything. I was like a kept boyfriend. So Sushmita is a woman that is very proud, and I’m going to say this very happily, and she is the remarkable lady and the self-made lady, self-made lady, and she will never accept anything from anybody," he added. The businessman further stated, "So when somebody says she’s a gold digger, no, Lalit was a diamond digger. It wasn’t she was a gold digger. I was hoping that I was a diamond digger as far as she was concerned, because she was truly a diamond. And as far as I’m concerned, she could have anybody on the planet she wanted. It was never about money." However, the news of the relationship and breakup has only been shared by Modi. Sushmita has not confirmed their relationship status as of now.

Emraan Hashmi's serial kisser image in the 2000s was a part of a promotional campaign. A PR expert revealed how he was initially hesitant about it but the plan later worked for him. Read on to know more.

It's not a secret that Emraan Hashmi had a "serial kisser" label during the 2000s, which often overshadowed conversations about his performance. But now, a former publicist has made shocking revelations that the image was intentionally developed for the actor. Emraan Hashmi's serial kisser image During a conversation with Soha Ali Khan on her podcast All About Her, PR expert Parul Gossain opened up about the tag and how the idea came up for building Hashmi's public profile. Also Read: Emraan Hashmi defends Haq amid controversy; 'As a liberal Muslim, I can say...' "Emraan Hashmi is so fed up with that image. He has given me a go-ahead to say it," Gossain said, recalling those days. "There was Emraan Hashmi. He has no interest in PR. I remember Mahesh Bhatt saying that we have to do PR for him now. I told him that all his stories about kissing girls always get picked up. Why don't we create an image for him that he kisses everybody in every film, all the girls in every film? So Mahesh Bhatt said, 'Isme baat toh hai.'" Also Read: Awarapan 2 release date out: Emraan Hashmi returns as Shivam Hashmi was initially hesitant As per Gossain, the actor was hesitant at first about the concept as he thought it would affect his personal life. "So we told Emraan. He said, 'Yaar, Parveen, my wife, will kill me.' I said, 'You get her and I'll have a word with her.' He said, 'Acha theek hai,' because he can't go against Mahesh Bhatt basically. I told her that this is just a marketing campaign. This is not his thing. He is very against it. I told her that it works for us really well because we have so many films lined up with him. But if we don't have a story, how do we do it? And it worked for him, especially in B and C centres. It worked for him tremendously." The plan eventually became successful, and it became one of the most recognizable celebrity images of that period. Also Read: Awarapan 2: Emraan Hashmi starrer goes on floors, filming begins in Bangkok When Emraan Hashmi addressed the serial kisser image Earlier, during an interview with Hindustan Times, Hashmi had himself addressed the image. "They were commercial successes, and I was also raking in that image. We were playing up to it through the marketing. The press was in on it," he said. "After a decade of doing it, I realised that the audience changes. They say that every 10 to 14 years, it switches. The next generation comes to the theatres. It's very important to reinvent yourself for that fresh audience. And every character, every mould, reaches the saturation point. You can only juice it out as much. And I realised I juiced it to the hilt, yeah. So it was very important to me to switch." Also Read: From Bandar to Governor, the June releases we are excited to watch!
