After seven years, Karishma Kapoor is back to ace the screens with her flawless acting. The actress is all set to make her digital debut with Alt Balaji’s upcoming web series titled Mentalhood in which she will be seen playing the character of Meira Sharma who is a multi-tasking mother of three children. Directed by Karishma Kohli, Mentalhood will showcase the journey of a gang of moms including a single dad who will go through a ride to raise their children with many challenges coming their way. Karishma Kapoor took it to Instagram to share a couple of posters from her upcoming web series. She introduced her character as, ‘Meet Meira Sharma. A small-town mom trying to navigate through this jungle of Mumbai momzillas. She knows parenting is about the right balance…it’s the finding of that balance that’s the tricky part. Her muddled thoughts are put on a blog…where she reaches out to every mom. SHE IS YOU. SHE IS ME. SHE IS EVERY MOM.
A tired, stressed out, worrying, caring…. mental mom. #mentalhood streaming soon on @altbalaji @ektaravikapoor @karishmakohli’.
This is an interesting and relatable role for Karishma Kapoor as she is a mom of two kids, Samiera Kapoor and Kiaan Raj Kapoor in real life. Talking about her role in the show, Karishma Kapoor said to Hindustan Times, “Out of choice I wanted to be with my family and children. After a while when I heard this script it was so interesting, the script was about today’s mother and it was so strong. Women of all ages and all those who are mothers will identify with my characters. It is also something which I am going through right now. Young parents and older parents will identify with Mentalhood. My character is today’s mom and as a human, she will do the right thing and is real. I am thoroughly enjoying shooting with all my lovely co-actors.”
Mentalhood is expected to release this year.
