. There have been several films on reincarnation.

What sets " Dangerous Ishhq " apart? "Dangerous Ishhq" is not about reincarnation, but regression. Unlike other films where the lead cast is shown being reborn, Karisma goes back into her past life to find a solution to the situation she is in presently.

Rajniesh is kidnapped, and each life she revisits gives her a clue on what is happening. Why choose Karisma Kapoor ? Firstly, I wanted someone who did not have any image.

And Karisma fit the bill as she was someone with a clean slate. And secondly, whether it was 1650 or 2012, she could portray being in both eras beautifully becuase she is a timeless beauty.

And Rajniesh Duggal ? Karisma has acted with most top actors and I wanted someone with a fresh face. I also wanted someone who has never worked with her.

What made you make a film on past life regression? I was in Los Angeles when I intuitively felt I should do regression. And when I actually did it, I got amazing insights into myself.

..

my soul..

. my past lives.

I was so enchanted by it that I learnt to do regression from a lady there. Interestingly, she told me that it was the higher masters and spirits that gave her the message to guide me spiritually.

It also inspired me to take up meditation. I have regressed myself, but have never done it on another person as yet.

Did the therapy help you get to know something unusual about yourself? I learnt the reason why I was suffering from asthma. I also learnt about the emotional upheavals in my life.

But it is too personal to discuss in print. The one amazing discovery I made is that not only the people you love - your near and dear ones - but even those you hate, meet you life after life repeatedly.
