Esha Deol has been one of the most successful actresses from the early 2000s. She is the daughter of veteran actress, Hema Malini, and actor, Dharmendra. Esha faced several ups and downs in her career before she made her mark with the hit action film, Dhoom. However, the film developed an image of a daring and modern girl for her. In a new interview, Esha shared how her mother, Hema Malini, gave her tips from her experience to avoid any uncomfortable wardrobe situations on the set.
Recently, Esha sat down for an interview on Hauterrfly and shared how she has dealt with uncomfortable wardrobe situations on the set. She debuted in the 2002 film, Koi Mere Dil Se Poochhe, and shared that when she entered the industry, fewer females and more males were on a film's set. As a result, it was essential to be careful regarding outfits on the set to avoid any uncomfortable wardrobe issues.
Esha continued that she was fortunate to avoid those situations because her mother, Hema Malini, had extensive experience dealing with such situations in the industry. As a result, she gave Esha essential tips to avoid getting into undesired situations involving short or revealing outfits. She was quoted as saying:
"Back then, only the heroines and the hairdressers would be women. Luckily, my mother has experienced this industry. There were tips that I was always given to avoid getting into that zone of getting into trouble or feeling uncomfortable."
The actress added that she soon learned the game's tricks and always covered her body with a towel or cloth after shots wherein she wore a skirt or low-cut neck tops. Moreover, she used a special hugging technique, putting her arms in front of her and hugging the other person around the neck. It helped her ward off any person who might trouble her.
In the same interview, Esha shared that her father, Dharmendra, came from a background where women used to marry at the early age of 18 and had an orthodox perspective. She mentioned it was logical for him to expect the same from her, and he didn't want her to join the showbiz. However, her mother, Hema Malini, gave her a different upbringing and supported her. Later, she convinced her father, who agreed with her decision. She said:

"He didn't want that I should enter the movies. He is a bit orthodox, rightfully so… He is a Punjabi father, and he wanted that we should get married, settle down at 18. That is his conditioning, he is coming from a place where all the women in his house were brought up that way. But my upbringing was very different."
Esha Deol took a break from the industry after embracing motherhood and made her comeback with short films. Interestingly, she worked with an all-female crew in Ek Duaa. She was last seen in the series, Hunter Tootega Nahi Todega. The actress will next be seen in the Main and Telugu film, Hero Herroine.
