Adhyayan Suman made his debut in 2008 with ‘Haal–e–dil’. His follow-up film, ‘Raaz – The Mystery Continues’, achieved commercial success. Adhyayan’s father, Shekhar Suman, has openly discussed the actor’s battle with depression and suicidal thoughts, which arose from the challenges he faced in Bollywood. In an interview, Adhyayan described himself as a victim of reverse nepotism and expressed remorse over not yet owning a home.Reverse NepotismIn an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Adhyayan described his situation as a unique example of nepotism—one where he didn’t receive work opportunities. He candidly stated, “I can say I am the best example of nepotism, jisko kaam nahi mila nepotism ki wajah se, or I can prove that. And you know I feel nepotism is a very futile debate, and I think it became a sort of fashion conversation.”Battling DepressionFurthermore, Adhyayan spoke about a difficult period in his life when he battled depression and felt trapped despite living in a penthouse. He explained that luxury can feel like a prison at times, regardless of the number of cars, houses, penthouses, or vacations one has. For someone like him, who has a strong desire to achieve something meaningful in life, such material comforts can actually lead to feelings of misery.Reflections on OwnershipHe reflected that after a certain point, owning cars and houses doesn’t truly feel like ownership since these belong to his father and are the result of his hard work. Although he has enjoyed these luxuries, he feels a sense of emptiness, realizing that at the age of 37, he still does not own a home of his own.
