Esha Deol Opens Up On Comparisons With Hema Malini
During an exclusive interview with Hauterrfly, host Siddhaarth Aalambayan asked Esha Deol about the pressure of having over-achiever parents. She said, “When I started my career, when my first film or second film came out, so, I was like I’m doing work and there was a high-end excitement and I was so involved with the projects, in the shooting. After that, when articles were being written, there were comparisons between me and my mom. They were comparing me with Mummy who has done 200+ films and I was doing my first or second film. So, I felt a little like what was happening, I wasn’t prepared for that, I never even thought about it until I read it.”

She further added, “One day when I was with my mother, I told her this is happening and I’m feeling uncomfortable and I’m not feeling so good, so, what should I do? So, she simply said, if your goal is clear and your vision is clear and you think about all this stuff and let it affect you then you are in the wrong profession. If you can handle it then continue. So, I was like come on, get on to dheet mode. Dheet mode is the way.”
