NEW DELHI: (Nov 11) Bollywood actor Esha Deol, who is the daughter of stars Dharmendra and Hema Malini, once said that her father was not keen on her joining films and wanted her to get married instead.
"He didn’t want me to enter films. He was rightfully orthodox because he was a Punjabi, so he wanted me to get married and settle down at 18 because that was his conditioning, he’s coming from there," said Deol to Hauterrfly in 2024.
The actor, who won the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut for "Koi Mere Dil Se Poochhe", said the women in his family are brought up that way but seeing her mom on screen made her want to do something along those lines.
