Struggles and First Breakthrough

The actress shared that she started doing theatre in Bhopal and gave countless auditions for advertisements and small roles, but nothing worked initially.

Eisha revealed that she recorded her audition at home with her mother's help, who shot the video on a handycam while she performed wearing a white saree. A few months later, she received a call confirming her selection for the role. She was only 16 years old when she bagged her first television show.
