/> The Deols and Hema Malini's daughter are coming together. Hema's daughters Esha and Ahana are in fact very close to their stepbrothers Sunny and Bobby Deol. And the only reason this fact is kept hidden away from public view is because "she" wouldn't like it. That's how the first Mrs Dharmendra, Prakash is addressed.

While Sunny and Bobby keep their affections for their half-sisters discreetly away from the public eye, one Deol who has come out openly in support of Esha and Ahana is Abhay Deol.

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'reconstantly 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. "
