Indian Idol 15: Karisma Kapoor recalls getting free taxi rides abroad as perks of being Raj Kapoor's granddaughter
Indian Idol is not only a platform for singing prodigies to demonstrate their talent, but it is also a source of profound confessions from the judges and special guests. Karisma Kapoor appeared on Indian Idol 15 to commemorate the show's "100 Years of Raj Kapoor." When Badshah asked her about the benefits of being a member of the famed Raj Kapoor family, the actress told a hilarious story that had everyone in stitches.
The promo video begins with Badshah enquiring about Karisma, "Jaise aapne bataya ki Russia mein following hai, China mein following hai." (As you indicated, there is a following in Russia, as well as in China. Have you ever done that or taken advantage of it?)
Karisma further added, "Hum sab ke saath aisa ek experience hua hai jahan humein Dada ji ke extra perks mile hain. Jab bhi hum foreign jaate hai jaise ki hum US mein hai toh hum taxi lete hain. Sometimes the taxi driver bahut friendly hotel hain, they ask mein where am I from and I tell them I am from India." (We've all had an experience where we got Dada ji's extra advantages. Whenever we travel abroad, such as in the United States, we use a taxi. Sometimes, the cab driver is quite friendly.)
Karisma Kapoor went on to explain that when she revealed herself to be Raj Kapoor's granddaughter, the driver searched the internet. As a result, she frequently received free trips.
