On Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor's 47th birthday, let's take a look at her struggles in the industry and how sister Kareena and mother Babita helped her deal with them.

New Delhi: Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor celebrates her birthday on June 25. On turning 47 this year, the gorgeous Kapoor girl was showered with birthday wishes on social media from BFFs and fans. Her sister Kareena Kapoor made it a point to make the day extra special for her sister with a heartfelt video featuring the sisters' best moments together. She also penned a long note for her 'Lolo' and said called her the 'bravest, strongest, and the most precious woman' she knew.  Although both the sisters have made a name for themselves in the industry, it wasn't an easy journey especially for Karisma Kapoor who joined the film industry prior to Kareena. In fact, Kareena had spoken about the same in detail in an old interview with Simi Garewal.  She revealed, "I have seen my sister sit up for nights together with my mother and cry, saying that people are putting her down and that she would never make it. I would hide behind and watch because they would never want me to see the pain they were going through. I've seen too much,"
