Popular celebrity photographer Avinash Gowariker recently sat down with Bollywood Hungama to talk about his career, his shoots, his favourite photos and what it is like to shoot with some of the biggest superstars. During the conversation, Gowariker reacted to some of his iconic photo-shoots and shooting one of his favourite muse, Karisma Kapoor.
Recalling shooting under her residential building, Avinash said, “So this is during my beginning of my career. So Lolo (Karisma Kapoor) was very special to me. She was my favorite. I used to shoot a lot with her. This is also under a building. I had no assistance, no studio, nothing. So I used to just shoot wherever randomly and it was under her building.
He said, “Yeah, it’s all burnt out. I just exposed for the face and everything else is burnt out. It's black and white, negative short, and nothing.”

This photo is from 1998... Just around the time of #RajaHindustani... I didn’t have a studio, so this photo (like many others) was shot under her building with natural light... #KarismaKapoor pic.twitter.com/4INAyDZVZp— Avinash Gowariker (@avigowariker) March 27, 2020
Talking about the mood and when it was shoot, Avinash said, “She was at the peak of her career. It was just post Raja Hindustani and all the David Dhawan films with her in it were doing very well. She and I had just started bonding as photographer and model and she also never did too many pictures. I just started enjoying it. In those days, most of the work used to happen is at the studio and studios had become very boring. She had liked the fact that I used to go wherever she was, asked to accompany on shoots. I used to shoot under building if required and shoot those pictures. So Manish Malhotra is very close to her and used to manage to just send some clothes. She used to have a makeup artist, and we say ‘jam’ and these are those pictures.”
Meanwhile, on the work front, Karisma Kapoor will be seen in web series Brown with director Abhinay Deo. She was last seen in Mentalhood.
