After an age of fans and media pronouncing Karisma Kapoor as Ka-rish-ma, the actress revealed the correct pronunciation of her name as Ka-rizz-ma. Recently, Karisma’s sister and actress Kareena Kapoor Khan opened up about the confusion and shared the reason behind the confusion.
Kareena also candidly said that the safest thing to call her is Lolo.
Kareena Kapoor on the correct pronunciation of Karisma Kapoor
During a recent conversation with BBC Asian Network, Kareena Kapoor Khan laughingly talked about the confusion around the pronunciation of Karisma Kapoor. The actress said she goes with the flow and whatever the interviewer asks her. “I am like… yeah, whatever. You love her, call her what you want. I think she’s also like… whatever… easy about it.”
Sharing her thoughts on the possible reason behind the confusion, she said, “A lot of people didn’t know, and they couldn’t pronounce because… What is Karisma versus Karishma? Karishma is like a miracle. I think she’s also like whatever you want to call me, but obviously, her name does not have an ‘H’ in it, and it is just Karisma on her passport.”
However, giving everyone a simple solution to the problem, Kareena said the safest thing would be to call her Lolo. “She’s so chill. It’s about love and emotion, but obviously, if you say what her name is in the passport, it is Karisma,” she concluded.

Singham Again was slated for release on Independence Day this year, but according to the latest buzz, it may be postponed to Diwali.
