Sep 4, 2013 IANS

Mumbai, Sep 4 (IANS) Actress Karisma Kapoor says she never lets her celebrity status come in the way of her concentration on the upbringing of her two children.

"There is a little bit of pressure and stress being in the public eye. But that all aside, I think being a mom, family values and running my home, these are things that are very important to me and that comes first before anything else in the world," the 39-year-old said here during the photoshoot for the cover of her book, "My Yummy Mummy Guide".

The book is focussed on motherhood.

Karisma is very excited about her book and says she can't wait to dole out tips for young moms.

"Motherhood means the world to me, it's everything to me. That's why I was really excited about the book because I wanted to tell all young moms about my journey and what I really, truly believe motherhood is," Karisma said.

She has an eight-year-old daughter Samaira and three-year-old son Kiaan Kapoor, with businessman Sanjay Kapur.
