Karishma Gangwal, popularly known as RJ Karishma, has been breaking the internet one reel at a time. A beacon of warmth and wit, Karishma carries the essence of her Kashmiri heritage with Pride. Born and raised in Jammu, Karishma enjoys a following of 7 million on Instagram alone and clocks more than 10 million views on an average and sometimes a staggering 50 million views on a single video, arguably making her the only female digital star in India to have massive support!
Her journey from the valleys of Jammu to the heart of Indore and now Mumbai is not just a geographical shift but a testament to Karishma's adaptability and drive. Over her impactful journey in the entertainment world, she has collaborated with renowned personalities across the industries like Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma, Ranbir Kapoor, Steve Smith, Vidya Balan, Shefali Shah, Varun Dhawan, Shreya Ghoshal, among others.
Hailing from a Kashmiri family from Jammu and representing India, Karishma's journey from the Valleys to Radio to now Cannes is a true example of sheer dedication and hard work. Being one of the very few Indian artists at a global event like Cannes is another huge achievement unlocked for Karishma.
Growing up, she has always been inspired by watching legendary actresses like Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Aishwarya Rai walk the prestigious red carpet for years now. Given her debut, she is being styled by ace celebrity stylist Ayesha Nigam in graceful custom pieces from globally recognised Indian-origin designers.
Sharing her excitement, Karishma Gangwal aka RJ Karishma- Artist, said, "Stepping into the world of entertainment as an artist where I'm able to represent India at such prestigious events, feels surreal. I'm looking forward to exploring international movies and also supporting Indian cinema at the Cannes Film Festival."
The global event will be taking place in the second week of May in Cannes, France.
