Career
Early Years
Before Ieshaan stepped into the shoes of an actor, he had worked as a crew member with Jet Airways International (J.A.I.), though he was always passionate about acting. In 2014, he visited Mumbai for intense training of six months related to his job at J.A.I. Two months after the training ended, Ieshaan quit his aircrew job in Delhi to pursue full-time acting for which he returned to Mumbai. Soon, he took up bodybuilding, and he is now known for his ‘chiselled body.’ The actor-model first walked on a ramp as a model in Goa when he was apparently 17 years old.
Television
Ieshaan made his acting debut with the television show Rishton Ka Chakravyuh in 2017-2018, which was aired on Star Plus. In 2018, he was also featured in a web series called “Kaushiki” on Voot Select. Ieshaan, however, became known in the industry after his performance in MTV’s show Fanaah. According to Sehgaal, he was selected for the role after giving several auditions. He has also worked in another show on the MTV channel called Zindagi U-Turn. On the channel Zing, Ieshaan was seen in a few episodes of “Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya.” In 2021, Ieshaan got his big break in the industry when he was selected as one of the contestants in the 15th season of the TV reality show ‘Bigg Boss,’ aired on ColorsTV. In an interview, when the actor was asked about his views on participating in the show, he said,
I was called for Bigg Boss OTT but I couldn’t take it as I was busy with my other projects. And this time when they approached I couldn’t say no. I have been a very big fan of the show and this was something I always wanted to. I find the concept very interesting and exciting. Now when I am getting the opportunity I am going to give my thousand per cent. Because it’s not just me but my mother is also a die-hard fan of the show. Since 2013, she used to keep saying to me, Ieshaan you should definitely do Bigg Boss.”
This was not the first time that Ieshaan was being associated with the show Bigg Boss. In 2016, he was seen in a promotional video for Bigg Boss 10, alongside Ex-Bigg Boss 13 contestant Mahira Sharma. Many speculated that he was roped in the 10th season of Bigg Boss as a contestant; however, Ieshaan waved off all the rumours.
