Who is Karishma Kotak?

Karishma Kotak, who has got the internet talking, began her career at the age of 16. She has, over the years, taken up multiple acting roles and modelling projects while also being present on the field to show off her skills as a sports anchor.

Kotak was born on May 26, 1982, in the U.K. Having loved the spotlight since the early days, the actress went on to take part in Bigg Boss season 6. In the following years, Karishma also hosted the IPL’s Extraaa Innings and went on to make her big-screen debut with the Punjabi film, Kaptaan, in 2016. 

Kotak got her big break in 2006, after she was selected to work for the Kingfisher Calendar. The TV presenter went on to work with many high-end brands, such as Dove, Pond's, Wella Hair Colour, Titan, Xylus and Tanishq.

Meanwhile, getting into the sports presenter’s field, Karishma, in conversation with ETimes, revealed to be inspired by Mandira Bedi. Kotak explained, "Mandira truly paved the way, and I have immense respect for what she brought to the space. I never planned to be a sports presenter; it just sort of found me! But I think when passion meets preparation, the universe aligns. I’ve always loved cricket, and once I stepped into the field quite literally, it just felt like home."
