Throwback: When Esha Deol revealed she ties rakhi to her step-brother Sunny Deol every year; called him a 'father-figure'

The relationship between Dharmendra's kids Sunny and Bobby Deol from his first wife and Esha and Ahana Deol from his second wife has often become the talking point.

Esha recently grabbed attention after she hosted a special screening of Sunny's latest movie, 'Gadar 2' for the Deol family in Mumbai. The siblings were also seen posing together for the paparazzi at the event.

In Hema Malini's biography, 'Beyond the Dreamgirl', Esha shared that she ties rakhi to Sunny and Bobby every year. However, she doesn't want the world to know about it. The actress added that she looks up to her half-brother, Sunny Deol as a 'father figure'. The actress, who doesn't believe in mincing her words, revealed that she knows how the world talks about their relationship.

Esha further added that the Deol family doesn't believe in showing off their relationship. While she called Sunny innovative and a good person, she believes Bobby Deol is a bit reserved.

Earlier, Esha's absence from Sunny's son Karan Deol's wedding had raised quite a few eyebrows. However, Esha and Hema Malini had shut the trolls by sharing congratulatory posts for the newlywed couple.

Sunny and Bobby too had skipped Esha's wedding in 2012 as they reportedly didn't want to hurt the sentiments of their mother Prakash Kaur. However, their cousin brother, Abhay Deol, performed the rituals at Esha's wedding.
