The Ram Kamal Mukherjee directorial, not only received a thumbs up from the audience and critics, but also bagged a number of prestigious awards this year. Among several of them were- Best Actress Award at MTV IWMBUZZ Digital Awards and Society Iconic Indian Award. Talking about the appreciation, Esha, during an interview credited her daughters- Radhya Takhtani and Miraya Takhtani for the win and said she will continue striking a balance between her personal and professional life. 

"It was the story, I knew that people will watch Shilpa Sen and her journey. When Ram Kamal narrated the story, I decided that this story will touch the heart of working women. Cakewalk changed my life, and I would give entire credit to my daughters. I am a completely different person today because of my lovely daughters. I would like to continue my work and also make sure that I give my hundred percent to my daughters. I will take them along to my shoots and spend time when I am not working," Esha told.
