Bollywood's action girl says action and comic roles go well with her because action and a sense of humor are part of the Deol lineage.
Esha Deol has been associated with action films since she struck it big in Bollywood with her role as Sheena in Dhoom (2004)
Before Dhoom Esha had styled herself in the mold of a well clothed demure dream girl personified by her mother Hema Malini. For the action film, producer Aditya Chopra asked her to sex-up her image and Esha readily agreed reinventing herself as a skin showing sex siren.
Subsequent films such as Dus (2005) and the ready to be released Cash (2007) have reinforced Eash’s image as an action girl.
The Deol girl recently attended the launch of her new film 123, a comedy that additionally stars Kajol's sister Tanisha, Tusshar Kapoor and Upen Patel
When asked why the action girl was opting for a comedy this time Esha, with shades of papa Dharamendra’s mischief on her face responded, "Humor is a very important ingredient of life and I live my life with a sense of humor."
The tag of an action girl is rare for an Indian leading lady, but Esha knows precisely why it has been associated with her.
"Action runs in my blood and I think action," she responds cheekily.
Esha says she had to work hard for her role in the slick thriller Cash. She was sent to a motor training school where she spent 4-5 days mastering the skills required to pivot a car 360 or 180 degrees.
Esha is keen to work with mother Hema one day and says all they are waiting for is a good script.
She is upbeat about the film Apne, released in theaters this weekend, starring her father Dharmendra and half brothers Sunny and Bobby.
"Their roles are outstanding, different, real and touching to the heart," says Esha
"They have lucked out this time and I'm now waiting for my chance," she adds.
The clincher from the spirited Deol girl comes when she explains why Apne is bound to succeed at the Box Office, using what we think was a Jat yamla pagla diwana… logic.
"Till today no one is as good looking as my father!" she says with a smirk.
