Karisma played the female lead in "Raja Hindustani" (1996) also starring Aamir Khan. The movie was a major hit and she won her first Filmfare Award as Best Actress.

Karisma Kapoor temporarily left the industry after her marriage. Prior to her marriage, Karisma was engaged to actor Abhishek Bachchan in 2002 but four months later they split up. On 29 September 2003, she married industrialist Sanjay Kapoor, CEO of Sixt India. The couple has one daughter named Samaira, who was born on 11 March 2005.
