Karina Kapoor quotes
# “I had no affair with Hrithik. People rumored about me that I went there to marry Hrithik when I visited the Dargha of Ajmer Sharif during the shooting of ”Ashoka”.# “Ever since I was a kid, I knew my sister was going to join the industry. I used to see her talking about films. Both of us would chat about it as well. In our family, women were not supposed to join the industry. I guess my sister broke the ice and I am following the tradition.”
