Esha Deol on her growing proximity to Deols

And the only reason this fact is kept hidden away from public view is because “she” wouldn't like it. Yes, that's how the first Mrs Dharmendra, Prakash, is addressed.

Sunny and Bobby keep their affections for their half-sisters discreetly away from the public eye but it looks like Dharmendra's nephew Abhay and Esha share a great bond. Esha in fact gets along like a house on fire with Abhay. The two spend a lot of time together, bonding unconsciously, building a bridge between Dharmendra's two families.

Says a source, “Abhay and Esha are constantly in touch. She has in fact taken charge of his fitness regime. Abhay is very lazy about going to the gym. Esha drags him to the gym and makes him work out. She wants him to build on his muscles while Abhay thinks the body is not quite the acting tool that he would like to use. They're constantly arguing over his laidback attitude to physical fitness.” When asked, Esha was candid about her closeness to Abhay.

“We've always been very close from our school days. I guess because now we're grown up and known names, people want to know about us.” Esha admits she has been helping Abhay with his gym regime.

“I do take him for wor-outs. It's always fun doing things with Abhay. We share a lovely bond. Like any brother and sister. We stay two minutes away from one another. So as and when we want to chill together we meet up. But we keep in touch constantly.”
