A tribute to Raj Kapoor
A promo for the new episode shows Karisma getting overwhelmed by contestant Mahima’s performance dedicated to the actor’s late grandfather, the legendary Raj Kapoor. Mahima appeared on stage dressed like Raj Kapoor’s most famous character he’s ever played: Raju the Joker from Mera Naam Joker (1970). She touched the stage for good luck and sang the song, Jeena Yahan, Marna Yahan.
Karisma was instantly emotional. She fought back tears the best she could until she broke into sobs. After her performance, she said, “Ye gaane ke jo shabd hain (the lyrics of this song) is what we are.” Karisma added, “Jo bhi hum hain aaj (Whatever we are today) is thanks to this great man.” Even judge Shreya Ghoshal was seen getting emotional.
Fans of the show are eagerly waiting for the episode to drop. “Soni TV you invite karisma every year love this . She is lovely thanks,” wrote one. “Oh so emotional,” wrote another.
