Esha Deol was recently reminded of her appearance on Koffee with Karan almost two decades ago when she revealed why she wore a salwar kurta on the popular celebrity chat show. The actress shared that Karan Johar was shocked she made that sartorial choice for the show. However, Esha also admitted that she did it because she was aware that her father, veteran actor Dharmendra might also watch it once the episode goes on-air.
“I have to go back and watch that interview because I don’t really remember what I said. I remember it being a fun, spontaneous interview and the main thing I remember is also that I wore a salwar-kurta and Karan (Johar) was like (shows amused expression) and I was like, ‘Maybe dad watches this, I better be well dressed’. So I made Rocky (celebrity fashion designer Rocky S) make a salwar-kurta for me,” Esha told India Today.
Esha also mentioned that she cannot remember ever saying that she was self-reflective about failure on KWK. The actress recalled what she said about failure and self-reflection in KJo’s show and admitted that she doesn’t resonate with it now. “I said this back then? I don’t know why I spoke and gave so much philosophy then. I am getting myself in trouble with what I said then. I don’t think it resonates to what I am today,” Esha added.
Esha Deol appeared on Koffee With Karan in the show’s first season i.e. 2005. She shared the couch with Shahid Kapoor.
Meanwhile, on the personal front, Esha Deol announced her divorce from her husband, Bharat Takhtani in February this year. The two, who got married in 2012, parted ways after being together for 11 years. In a joint statement that Isha and Bharat issued, they revealed that they have decided to separate “mutually and amicably”. “We have mutually and amicably decided to part ways. Through this shift in our lives, the best interests and welfare of our two children is and will be of utmost importance to us. We’d appreciate our privacy is respected,” their statement read.
Isha and Bharat are parents to their daughters Radhya and Miraya, who are six and four years old respectively.
