Karisma Kapoor recalls when actors had to walk miles to use a washroom, would have to change behind bushes: ‘The entire unit would whisper’

Karisma went on to explain how actors had to be resourceful during shoots: “We would often stop at roadside shops or knock on someone’s door, asking, ‘Can we change here? We’re shooting for a song outside.’ From that, to see the industry today—with 35 trailers parked outside, the latest digital media, and state-of-the-art sound systems–it’s truly unbelievable.”

Karisma also shared a memorable anecdote about the evolution of filmmaking technology: “We made movies where we only dubbed. The first time I saw myself on a monitor was during the ‘Dance of Envy’ in Dil To Pagal Hai. Before that, we never saw the footage. It was only when the film released on the big screen, in 70mm, that we saw the results.”

Having grown up in Raj Kapoor’s illustrious family, Karisma expressed deep gratitude for witnessing the industry’s transformation from such close quarters. “I have had the privilege of seeing the industry grow and evolve so much. I am grateful that I can share my own experiences and talk about the incredible progress that Indian cinema has made.”
