The Agony Behind Karisma Kapoor's Smiling Face



Penned By B D Narayankar

Yesterday, my love
I was with Karisma
for an interview

In a room with her
my mind traversed back
to watching 
Biwi No. 1
on screen,
over a decade ago

Both heroes,
both heroines
so beautiful,
saying things 
larger than life:
their actions -
ideal for anyone to see

At the end of the film
Salman holds the hand
of Karisma
and in one eyeful
apologises for his mistake

How real was he -
the reel lifepartner Salman 
and how fake is he -
Karisma's real lifepartner

I wish,
no woman,
specially you (beloved)
suffers like this,
for I saw agony writ
all over Karisma's
smiling face

Can there be anything worthy
for me
than seeing you happy in life,
my love
