‘Karisma Kapoor told me she saw Raj Kapoor pull hair of women...’: Top director's shocking revelation

Bollywood star Karisma Kapoor comes from the famed ‘Kapoor Khandaan’ which has given stalwarts like Prithviraj Kapoor, Shashi Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor, and Raj Kapoor to Hindi film industry. It is to be noted that Raj Kapoor, who was a popular actor and director of his era, was Karisma Kapoor’s grandfather. Now, in an interview with Lehren Retro, director Dharmesh Darshan has made a shocking revelation claiming that Karisma Kapoor once told him that she saw Raj Kapoor pull women’s hair.

According to Dharmesh Darshan when Karisma and Aamir Khan were filming a song for his 1996 film Raja Hindustani, there was a scene where Aamir was supposed to pull Karisma's hair but the actor was unwilling to do so and he suggested that instead of pulling Karisma’s hair he should pull the actress by her arm instead. Dharmesh said that he accepted Aamir Khan’s suggestion but Karisma said that she has no problem with the sequence of Aamir pulling her by her hair.

“She took me to a corner. She requested we do it. She said, ‘I’ve seen my grandfather do it sometimes. Forget his films. In real life.' When she told me that, I went to Aamir and said, ‘No one take this, one take that. Just straight up pull her hair',” Dharmesh said in the interview.

Karisma Kapoor is the daughter of actor Randhir Kapoor and Babita. Meanwhile, on the work front, Karisma Kapoor will be next seen in Brown and Murder Mubarak with Vijay Verma and Sara Ali Khan.
