Karishma Kotak shot for the music video of singer Yasser Desai's track, 'Ab Talak', in London. The former Bigg Boss contestant and Indian Premier League presenter, who is based in London, was glad to be shooting on home turf. She turned tourist guide for unit members.

Talking about the song, Karishma said, "It's an out and out romantic track. We had a great time shooting for the song in the lanes of London. It's my home and I could show the crew around as well. I have always loved a New York, London kind of set-up for songs and here I am shooting for one."

She added: "I couldn't ask for more. It would be out soon. My prayers are with Indians during this difficult time. Let's all stay strong and this too shall pass."

Karishma is content with how her journey has shaped up. "I like the place that I am in, where I am getting to do what I love. I get to dabble in acting, modelling and hosting. I don't want to get typecast in one specific genre of the entertainment industry. Now I am getting to dabble in various platforms, so I feel that I am blessed," said Karishma, in an earlier interaction with IANS.

"I don't come from any filmy background. I am from London. I was modelling in England, and then I moved to Bombay about 12 years ago. In 2006, I did a Kingfisher swimsuit calendar show and after that, I did a Telugu movie directed by Prabhudheva. During that time, 'Bigg Boss' happened and I also hosted a TV special for the Indian Premier League. I did some amazing cameos in a film like 'Freaky Ali' with Arbaaz Khan, Sohail Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui and in another film which starred Arshad Warsi," she said.
