After being asked to appear live on camera by Harshit Tomar, the owner of the World Championship of Legends (WCL) competition, Bigg Boss 6 participant and presenter Karishma Kotak has been receiving a lot of attention on social media. Everyone is interested in her because of the occasion, and we’re here to tell you the truth.
Karishma Kotak Goes Viral After On-Air Proposal During WCL 2025
And the cricket pitch was not the only field where fireworks lit up the night during the WCL 2025 finale in Edgbaston, UK. Off pitch, a moment that no one expected, and which was unplanned took the center stage as Harshit Tomar, owner of the World Championship of Legends, proposed to anchor Karishma Kotak live on air. The clip spread like wildfire across social media, and it drew attention to Karishma’s career and personal life.
Just after AB de Villiers powered the South Africa Champions with a live-wire hundreds of 60 balls to a nine-wicket victory against Pakistan Champions, the home stars concluded their first-afternoon post-match presentation. During this time, Karishma asked Tomar casually what he would do for a reward since the tournament would be successful. With cameras rolling, he replied, “Probably once this is over, I’m going to propose to you.”
Karishma obviously shocked, gasped, “Oh my God” but regained her bearings and put on her professional hosting facade. She didn’t give an immediate answer, but it became the talking point of the internet.
From Bigg Boss to Sports Stage: Karishma Kotak’s Journey
Karishma Kotak was not born into stardom; she spent her early years in London, raised by a father from the Gujarati community and an East African mother, and began modeling at the tender age of just 16. At 16, she featured in the Kingfisher Calendar of 2006, which was her biggest break, and she has since done several ad campaigns for brands such as Pond’s, Titan and Tanishq.
Karishma was later well-known because of the reality show Bigg Boss 6, which she could not complete due to the death of her father. She then ventured into acting and worked in films like Freaky Ali and the Punjabi movie Kaptaan.
Karishma has also made a name for herself as a successful sports presenter by hosting Extraaa Innings for IPL 6. Since then, she has become a known face in sports broadcasting and credits Mandira Bedi for inspiring her transition to anchoring.
Karishma remained completely mum about her affairs until now, though she had once been purported to be dating her co-contestant Niketan Madhok and rumored to be dating Karan Wahi, which she never confirmed.
Currently, her style includes luxury cars such as Audi Q7 and BMW X5; loves traveling and owns a pet dog that is often featured on her Instagram.
It came to light during her time on Bigg Boss that she had dated model and fellow competitor Niketan Madhok once. During a work, the previous romance surfaced. She later described it as a “very old closed chapter that lasted for a couple of months only” in an interview with Hindustan Times. She is rumored to be dating the actor Karan Wahi. However, they were never verified.
