Dhamendra and Hema Malini's daughter, Esha Deol is a sweetheart, who always prioritises her family above everything else. She shares an amicable bond with her stepbrothers, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol, despite the rumours about their alleged family feud. Earlier, it was claimed that Hema’s side of the family was not allowed to enter Dharmendra’s house, where his first wife, Prakash Kaur, lived. However, once, Sunny Deol made it possible for Esha Deol to meet Dharmendra’s first wife, Prakash Kaur.
In Hema Malini's biography, Hema Malini: Beyond the Dream Girl, Esha Deol talked about how she became the first member of Hema Malini’s family to enter Dharmendra’s house. Sharing the details, Esha revealed that she was extremely close with Dharmendra’s brother, Ajeet Deol, who is also Abhay Deol’s father. However, as Ajeet fell ill in 2015, Esha wanted to meet him and check on him, but he was being treated at Dharmendra’s house. Recalling how Sunny Deol helped her, Esha said:
“I wanted to meet my uncle and pay my respects. He loved me and Ahana very much and we were also very close to Abhay. We had no other way than to go to his house. He was not even in the hospital that we would meet him there. So I called Sunny Bhaiya and they made full arrangements to meet him.”
