The actress made her debut with the movie, Koi Mere Dil Se Poochhe in 2002.

Going further in the interview, Esha Deol talked about her crazy fan experience during that time, when she became the OG National crush for her oh-so-gorgeous performance. The actress shared that a whole lot of guys had a huge crush on her and she had received a lot of proposals too.

"After Dhoom, there was an entire frenzy where a lot of guys had a crush on me, a lot of people proposed. It was very sweet and cute, and I am a young girl, so I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the attention I got. It was nice, it was fun. Even now on my social media, so many of them comment, 'My first crush', and I know they are relating to Dhoom."
In the same conversation, Esha Deol was asked about people announcing several actresses as the national crush, and how it felt like to be the original national crush back in her time.
