As an actor, Uday did not have any films in the pipeline after the release of Dhoom 3 on 20 December 2013.
Despite belonging to successful film families, they could not make it big in showbiz.
There are a lot of star kids in the Hindi film industry who have failed to make it big in their careers despite working in several films and getting enough screen time. Many will remember the names of actors Uday Chopra and Esha Deol in this connection. Despite belonging to successful film families, they could not make it big in showbiz. The audience never liked him and he failed to impress the audience with his acting skills. Many cinephiles believed that the 2004 hit film Dhoom would be instrumental in catapulting him to fame, but it was not to be.
In contrast, John Abraham, who had acted in only a few films at that time, rose to prominence with this film. He touched new heights of popularity after playing the antagonist Kabir. Uday played Ali, assistant to Inspector Jai Dixit (Abhishek Bachchan), who helps him capture Kabir and his team. Isha played the role of Ali’s girlfriend Sheena.
After the success of Dhoom at the box office, cinematographers were left with no memorable work from Esha’s filmography, barring a few films like Ankahi directed by Vikram Bhatt. Untold proved to be a disaster in terms of collections (Rs 1.05 crore), but was appreciated for including taboo subjects like adultery and the disturbing reality behind the ideal marriage. Esha was praised for playing the role of the villainous Kavya Krishna to perfection, but failed to progress in her career after that.
She married her business partner Bharat Takhtani on 29 June 2012. The actress embraced motherhood in 2017 and again in 2019. Isha took a break from her career for a long time. She made a comeback with the short film Cakewalk (2019) and last appeared in Rudra: The Edge of Darkness (2022) as Shaila Durrani. Fans were happy to know that she has earned rave reviews for her acting skills from critics for her comeback project.
As an actor, Uday did not have any films in the pipeline after the release of Dhoom 3 on 20 December 2013. Despite being the son of late filmmaker Yash Chopra and brother of director Aditya Chopra, why did Uday fail to achieve stardom? He spoke about the issue in a promotional interview for a docu-drama, The Romantics. Uday told a media portal that he tried to become a mainstream actor, which proved to be a mistake and that he should have played more characters like Ali.
