<p>Suman made a comeback of sorts with the Netflix web series <em>Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar.&nbsp;</em>The show premiered on the OTT platform on May 1. Suman plays the role of Zulfiqar Ahmed in Heeramandi and was paired opposite Manisha Koirala.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Reflecting on the learnings&nbsp;and the unexpected opportunity, Shekhar expressed&nbsp;gratitude for the chance to work with Bhansali.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In an earlier interview with ANI, Suman had said, "As an artist, you desire to work with a well-known director. I got a chance to work with him, but on every step, on every path, a person learns something. But when he comes with a good filmmaker, he climbs many steps. So I feel that when I started this work in Heeramandi, me it was enough for me to do even one scene. Because to be seen in this environment and to do something is a big thing in itself. But there is also a connection to it. This opportunity came to me that time when I was not expecting it."<br />
<br />
The show also starred his son Adhyayan Suman.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Suman joins a list of celebrities who have joined the BJP in recent weeks amid the Lok Sabha 2024 polls. Just last week, TV star Rupali Ganguly joined the party. Arun Govil and Kangana Ranaut are also contesting on BJP tickets this year.&nbsp;</p>
