Once, in a throwback interview with Filmygyan, Esha talked about celebrating Raksha Bandhan with her brothers and getting a decent amount. Revealing how she ties rakhi to her father, Dharmendra, Esha shared:
“Yeah, usually it's a beautiful tradition that we follow, we always look forward to it. Even as kids you know. And for some reason as kids, we would tie rakhi even to my dad, which was very sweet. So from him and the brothers, I would get a nice amount, a decent amount."
In the same interaction, Esha revealed that since she has many brothers, she would get somewhere around Rs 500 to Rs 5000, but the amount never crossed a lakh. When the host asked the actress how she spends the money, Esha replied that she actually doesn't spend the money as it is a shagun from her brothers.
In Hema Malini's biography, Beyond the Dreamgirl, Esha stated that every year on the holy occasion of Raksha Bandhan, she ties Rakhi to her step-brothers, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol. The excerpt from Hema Malini's biography can be read as:
"I don’t need to tell the world about the relationship between myself and my half-brothers. I know the world talks about our relationships in different ways. But the Deol family members do not want to show off their relationships. Sunny Bhaiya is very innovative and a very good person at heart too. I treat him like a father. Bobby bhaiyya’s behavior is also very good, but he is a bit reserved."
