New Delhi: This seems to be the year of confessions and revelations. Leading actors, actresses and filmmakers have shared nuggets from their experiences in Bollywood. Now, Shekhar Suman opened up about his son Adhyayan Suman’s relationship with Kangana Ranaut and claimed he never spoke to the Queen actress when they were dating. Adhyayan and Kangana dated back in 2008. They broke up during the shooting of their film Raaz: The Mystery Continues, following which Shekhar took numerous digs at Kangana at the time.
Now, speaking with Bollywood Hungama, Shekhar looked back at the relationship and confessed he knew everything about it but chose to remain tight-lipped because he wanted Adhyayan to fight his own battles. He added that neither Adhyayan nor Kangana should be blamed for the breakup.
He said he was aware of every single moment but never talked to Kangana. “That’s his battle, he has to fight it. I can only give him the strength to fight that battle. I cannot fight his battles. I can never be that dad who would go and tell the other person, ‘tumne mere bachche ke saath..(why did you wrong my child)’. I think he is man enough and can fight his battles,” Shekhar told Bollywood Hungama.
The actor added that he was never against Adhyayan dating Kangana. “I am never against any relationship. I was not against his relationship with Kangana. I think it’s a phase in life; sometimes you succeed in your first relationship, and sometimes you fail. Nobody wants that they fail in their first relationship. But society loves drama. People would have wanted Kangana and Adhyayan’s relationship to end. Sometimes even your friends do not want your happiness,” he added.
“It was neither Adhyayan nor Kangana’s fault. It was the fault of circumstances because of which some things happened which were not meant to be. It should always end on a good note. Also, if by mistake Adhyayan said anything that he shouldn’t have, he apologised. He doesn’t have any anger for anybody,” Shekhar was quoted as saying. Nevertheless, Shekhar said that Adhyayan went through “dungeons and abyss from where it is impossible to come out” but is better now.
Adhyayan Suman made his acting debut in 2008 with Haal-e-Dil. Following his film with Kangana, Raaz — The Mystery Continues, in 2009, Adhyayan went on to take a break for four years and made his comeback in 2013 with Dehraadun Diary. He starred in films such as Himmatwala (2013), Heartless (2014), and Luckhnowi Ishq (2015), among others. He was last seen in the series Ashram.
