‘I will be good in action films’

Esha Gupta worked as a model before foraying into films, and the actor is often appreciated for putting together interesting looks, especially for her appearances on the red carpet. When asked about which fellow actors she admires for their fashion choices, Esha says that she finds Sonam Kapoor and Kangana Ranaut “really good”.

Esha is often praised for her fashion sensibilities, but is there anyone that she looks up to in the style department? “I don’t look up to anyone when it comes to fashion, because I’ve got an amazing team of stylists. We create looks that we feel will look good on me. I don’t think they have ever shown me any other actor’s dresses or dug out Indian or international references,” says the actor.

She adds, “I like dressing up and I know what looks good on me. And the people I work with, my personal stylists, have been working with me since the beginning of my career. We have all grown together. We may have made a few mistakes as well, but luckily they were not noticed by the media (laughs). I think good team of stylists, ha stylists and make-up ar really matters.”

Ask her about her other interests beyond films, and she says, “I r lot. I love reading, beca I love the idea that I am reading someone else’ story and recreating i visually in my head. W films, it’s someone els story and vision. I als to travel and discove places. Besides that, really enjoy adventu sports.”

Talking about the genres and kinds of films she wants to w in, the actor says, “I would like to go wit the flow. However, really wish someon would cast me in a slick action film lik the Resident Evil films. Basically, a girl doing all the action, because I t they have not sho that in India as ye know I’ll be really good at it.”
