Karisma Kapoor is "immensely grateful" for audience's appreciation for her new show 'Brown'
Mumbai, June 20
Actor Karisma Kapoor on Saturday penned a thank you note for the audience for appreciating her performance as a cop in the recently released series 'Brown'.
"Blood, Bruises, Brown. Thank you to each and every one of you for all the love and appreciation you have given Rita Brown and our show. Immensely Grateful," she wrote on Instagram.
She also shared several BTS pictures from the sets of 'Brown'.
Speaking to ANI, Karisma earlier revealed she was initially hesitant about doing the project.
"Earlier, I refused to play the role in Brown. I was like, 'How will I go to Kolkata for so many days?' So, I turned down the role. Then, I met Abhinay (Deo). After hearing the role, the character, the rawness, I said yes, and I'm sitting here. It was very challenging and very exciting for me. She is so broken, but she is strong, too. She has softness and hardness, too. I think the audience sees this uniqueness."
Karisma reflected on her journey, noting that she started working from a very young age.
"I am like this now. I don't like to work so much. I have done it a lot. I was very young when I started working. I have a different pace. I have a different mood. I work from here, from my heart. So, if I like it, I will do it. Otherwise, no," she said.
Directed by Abhinay Deo and produced by Zee Studios, Brown is streaming on ZEE5.

Honestly, the show is decent but not groundbreaking. Karisma's acting is top-notch, but the script could have been tighter. Still, it's refreshing to see a female cop who isn't just a stereotype. More power to her for taking on challenging roles.
Wow, she turned it down initially because of shoot location? That's so relatable for us working professionals too! 😅 But glad she took it up. The rawness she mentioned really comes through in every scene.
Karisma has always been a trendsetter - from 'Raja Hindustani' to 'Dil To Pagal Hai' and now this! She's ageing like fine wine. The OTT space is giving such amazing opportunities to our veteran actors. Rita Brown is a must-watch for any Bollywood fan.
She says she doesn't like to work so much now, but her performance shows she still gives 100%! That's the sign of a true artist. Much better than some current stars who just do one movie a year and still complain.
Loving the new wave of content on Indian OTT platforms! Karisma's character is so multilayered - the bruises and blood really add to the gritty realism. Hope this opens more doors for women-centric cop dramas.
