Esha Gupta (/ˈiːʃə ˈɡʊptə/; born 28 November 1985)[1][2] is an Indian actress, model, and beauty pageant titleholder.

[4] Post her debut, Gupta has received praises for her portrayal in the political drama Chakravyuh (2012), but her performance in the comedy film Humshakals (2014) met with negative reviews.

[12] Gupta made her Bollywood debut with Mahesh Bhatt's Jannat 2 in 2012 opposite Emraan Hashmi in the lead role.

[13] For her debut performance, Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama said, "Debutante Esha Gupta enchants you with her captivating charm.

"[14] Martin D'Souza of Glam Sham wrote, "As for the debutante, Esha Gupta, I guess she may have to enroll herself into an acting school.

"[15] Gaurav Malani stated, "Esha Gupta, who looks a mix between Lara Dutta and Isha Koppikar, is merely there for the glam quotient.

A Bhatt film where the heroines don't get to flaunt it is unimaginable, after all, Bipasha looks hot in her starring role but Esha reveals a few raw edges".

[26] Mumbai Mirror stated, "Gupta steals the show (unintentionally) with her OTT makeup and her misplaced expressions.

[32] She also made her television debut as a judge with & TV's High Fever — Dance Ka Naya Tevar in 2018.

In 2022, she played Bobby Deol's image-maker in the third season of Indian Hindi-language crime drama web series Aashram.
