Based on Abheek Barua's 2016 book City of Death, Brown is a thriller adapted by Digvijay Singh, Sunayana Kumari and Mayukh Ghosh, and directed by Abhinay Deo. Besides Karisma, Brown also features veteran actor Helen, Soni Razdan, Surya Sharma and KK Raina. The release date of the series is yet to be announced.

JoJo Siwa breaks down on stage in London; Admits she's exhausted and ‘faking it'
JoJo Siwa, the vibrant performer known for her high-energy shows and colourful personality, recently had an emotional moment on stage in London. During her performance at Colours Hoxton, the 22-year-old singer broke down in tears, revealing to her audience that she has been struggling with exhaustion and the pressure of maintaining her upbeat persona. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now A Vulnerable Moment on Stage Siwa, who has been in the spotlight since her early days on Dance Mums, shared a heartfelt confession with her fans. She admitted that since she was nine years old, she has gone through phases where she felt like 'one of the most hated people in the world.' Despite her immense success, she acknowledged that she had been holding onto things beyond her control, particularly during her teenage years. During her emotional speech, Siwa reassured her audience that she now feels 'incredibly loved' but admitted that nights like this make her reflect deeply. She told the crowd, 'I don't cry that often, but nights like this really hit me. I can be up here, sing my songs, and commit to the bit, but I just want you to know that inside, my heart is smiling.' The Toll of a Hectic Schedule Siwa's packed schedule has been relentless in recent months. She performed in Mexico, celebrated her birthday in Florida, flew to London for back-to-back shows, and returned to Los Angeles after her April appearance on Celebrity Big Brother. She obviously suffered from the constant travel and performances, which caused her to lose it on stage. In a recent Instagram Q&A, a fan asked where she gets her energy, to which Siwa responded, 'I try to find happiness in every moment, even when it's hard, or fake it when I am empty. Currently, what's happening hahaha.' Another fan asked if she ever takes a break, and Siwa admitted that she briefly rested around her birthday but plans to take a 'little break' in early June.
