Esha debuted in 2002 with the romantic thriller, Koi Mere Dil Se Poochhe. Since she has been a part of Bollywood for more than two decades, she was asked about her views on the recent debate over the high entourage costs of actors. In her reply, Esha said that when she debuted in Bollywood, more emphasis was laid on working in the film. The actors were happy working with a small team that included a manager with a makeup and hair artist. She said:
"We debuted in a beautiful, simple time where the focus was more on working on the films and our roles. Today, there are so many heads involved in every project. We functioned with a manager, hair, makeup, and a boy. We were happy with that, and we are still happy with that."

Esha Deol took a step back from acting after becoming a mother. She has two daughters, Radhya, born in 2017, and Miraya, born in 2019.

Esha said that she has always been passionate about acting and cannot stay away from it for a long time. In her words:
"I felt it was the right time to get back to acting. The kind of content being made and also how my contemporaries were continuing to be in the field, it felt good to come back. Acting has always been a passion of mine and I don't think it can ever stay silent for too long."
