The veteran actor Shekhar Suman will be seen next in Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar which has been directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and is slated to release on 1 May 2024.
Shekhar Suman gave an interview recently in which he took a jibe at the young actors who want stardom overnight. He said, “There are many good things in this era too. But there are also shortcomings. All these new young actors want fame very soon in their life. They want stardom overnight, they want to be seen everywhere, everyone should talk about them, reels are being made. Dikh dikh ke pareshaan hai aur log dekh dekh ke pareshaan. They are being spotted at their homes, airports and gyms. And everywhere they act surprised like they didn’t know people are going to be there, given those people are called by them.”
Shekhar Suman’s son Adhyayan Suman has also made a comeback with Heeramandi and when he was asked about the experience of working with his father, he said, “It has always been my dream to work with my father. And I do share one scene with him in the show. It’s a very interesting scene. I can’t reveal anything beyond this. But yes, it was very exciting to act with my father.”
Heeramandi also stars Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi SInha, Fardeen Khan, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chaddha, Sanjeeda Sheikh and others in important roles.
