However, in a recent interview with India Today, Esha shared that Karan Johar was shocked after seeing her in a salwar suit on his show. Sharing why she opted for a salwar suit, Esha revealed that she was quite sure that her dad, Dharmendra might watch the episode, so she thought it would be the best to dress well. Esha can be quoted as saying:
"I have to go back and watch that interview because I don’t really remember what I said. I remember it being a fun, spontaneous interview and the main thing I remember is also that I wore a salwar-kurta and Karan was like (shows amused expression) and I was like, ‘Maybe dad watches this, I better be well dressed’. So I made Rocky make a salwar-kurta for me."
During the second season of Koffee With Karan, Hema Malini appeared on the show. On the show, the host, Karan Johar asked the actress if Dharmendra ever gave any advice to Esha in terms of her career. To this, Hema Malini revealed that Dharmendra never wanted Esha to do films.

Speaking along the same lines, Hema Malini mentioned that after learning that her father didn't want her to join the film industry, Esha raised a point after which Dharmendra had no answer, hence, their daughter started working in films. Esha asked Dharmendra if everyone in their family including her parents and brothers could do films then why she could not.
