Excited about her digital debut, Karisma Kapoor, who is a mother of two in real life, shared in a statement, “Out of choice I wanted to be with my family and children. When I heard this script, it was so interesting. The script was about today’s mother and it was so strong. Women of all ages and all those who are mothers will identify with my character. It is also something which I am going through right now.”

Adding that the show will be quite relatable, she said, “Young parents and older parents will identify with Mentalhood. My character is today’s mom and as a human, she will do the right thing and is real. I am thoroughly enjoying shooting with all my lovely co-actors”

Mentalhood will depict the crazy ride of motherhood. Apart from Karisma Kapoor, Tillotama Shome, Shilpa Shukla, Shruti Seth, Sandhya Mridul and Dino Morea will also play important roles. The show will also depict how these mothers manoeuvre their way through unreasonable expectations and eccentricities to raise their children.

Directed by Karishma Kohli, Mentalhood will release later this year.
