Ekta Kapoor also took to her Instagram account to introduce the Karisma’s character. Ekta captioned,
“When BIWI NO1 becomes MUMMY NO1! N now we come to d final introduction! The mommy most like us! The enabler the narrator d perspective!! The anti thesis of the PERFECT MOTHER is the ever-growing EVER EVOLVING ONE! She tries she cries she cares she fails n she never gives up! Cause motherhood is an ongoing process.”
The web series will showcase the topsy-turvy ride of the various kinds of mothers that exist and how they maneuver their way through unreasonable expectations and eccentricities to raise their children. How multi-tasking becomes a habit and constant worrying and guilt become their nature forms the crux of the show.
Have a look at these pictures:
Talking about why she gave her nod to the show, Karisma said, “Out of choice I wanted to be with my family and children. After a while when I heard this script it was so interesting, the script was about today’s mother and it was so strong. Women of all ages and all those who are mothers will identify with my characters. It is also something which I am going through right now. Young parents and older parents will identify with Mentalhood. My character is today’s mom and as a human, she will do the right thing and is real. I am thoroughly enjoying shooting with all my lovely co-actors.”
The actress even revealed that her kids- Samaira and Kiaan are excited about her getting back to work. She stated, “They are excited that I am working again. I started working at a very young age. Everyone in my family has been an actor and contributed to this industry. I have grown up with a really strong work ethic, and I think that’s hopefully gone down to my children as well.”
Directed by Karishma Kohli, “Mentalhood” will release later this year.
