My stint on TV is not over. I haven’t quit the medium. But If I were to do a TV show at this stage of my career, it would have to be something mind-blowing.” Karishma expressed that the basis of her career has been television and that the actress has enjoyed playing different characters as well as appearing in both fictional and reality shows.

She is also of the opinion that this new medium is a “game changer” for most people in the field.
