Actress Esha Deol, daughter of famous actor Dharmendra, had a tough time breaking into the film industry, even with her family's influence. Her father, who holds traditional values, was against her becoming an actress and would have preferred she get married and settle down by the time she was 18.

Esha Deol recalls Dharmendra did not want her to act

In a recent interview with Hauterfly, 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.”
