Describing it as the 'worst of the experiences', the actor recalled that the team of the film faced a great deal of miscommunication between the assistant director and the director team. She recalled being late on the set owing to an outfit issue. 

After reaching the set, the director of the movie harshly pointed out Esha's tardiness by 'saying something in Hindi' which led to her explaining that the delay was caused because of the outfit. The actor went on to say that she had arrived on the sets before the team and before the studio had opened. She asserted that it was not her fault that she was late on the set. 

However, the director abused the actor once again which triggered Esha to snap back.

The actor stormed off the set resulting in producers and Executive producers incessantly calling to apologize to her. Remaining firm on her stance, the actor demanded an apology from the director who apologized two days later. The shooting resumed soon after.
