Actor Esha Deol  has said that her mother, actor politician Hema Malini, is recovering well from her injuries in a recent road accident, and that she is not a ‘superwoman’. “She Hema is gradually recovering thanks to all your blessings and good wishes. So, let’s give her a big hand for that,” said the 33-year-old actor at the convocation ceremony of filmmaker Subhash Ghai’s institute recently.

Wishing her mother a quick recovery and healthy, happy life, Esha said: “I stand here today as a very proud daughter of a mother who is traditional yet unconventional. She is a woman of substance. She is someone who has lived her life on her own terms. She is someone who is has a very pure heart. And she is not a superwoman. Pun intended. I hope you know what I mean.”
