Ehsa had a lack luster debut. She has not actually tasted the box office success either. But the spunky actress is not giving up. Her first step towards resurrection has been to pledge her independence as an actress and break free from her mom`s nfluence.

Her decision has proved to be fruitful for Vashu Bhagnani has decided to cast her in two of his forthcoming films. And no, he hasn`t cast her opposite his other favourite Tusshar.Does that mean it`s time for Ms Deol to celebrate? On the contrary, she is "so neck deep in work" that she would like to "just take Sundays off and work like a manic," now that comparisons with her still-gorgeous mother, Hema Malini sound quite odious.

Come to think of it, some harsh critics have actually pointed out that she doesn`t even look like any of her parents, the thought of which puts her off completely. The only silver lining is that she has been complimented for having a great frame. At this rate, wouldn`t it be wiser to make comparisons with her half brothers, who look great but are not a patch on their father. Hey, that could lead to some sibling rivalry, Esha!
