Although it was well known that actor Adhyayan Suman was the son of well-known actor Shekhar Suman, he soon realised that having a famous father did not guarantee him any film roles. During the early stages of his career, Adhyayan Suman appeared in films like ‘Raaz - The Mystery Continues’, ‘Heartless’, and ‘Himmatwala’. Adhyayan admitted as much in a recent interview, saying that the casting director pushed him around a lot and that he eventually "felt like a dog" who was trying really hard not to upset their egos.

Adhyayan recalled that although people would tell him to go to parties, he had initially doubted whether doing so would lead to employment. “People used to tell me ‘Arrey jaa na, party kar na industry ke logon ke saath, mix around with them’.(Go and party with industry people) But my question is, mere party karne se kaam kaise mil jayega?,” (how will I get work by partying?),” he told in an interview.

He added, “Sirf party karne se kaam nahi milta hai. Also, you can’t just go and party with them (established names in the industry) . If you are a nobody and haven’t done something big yet, they are not going to invite you ki, ‘Aaja party karte hain’ (Come Let’s party). Either you need to be very successful or be a childhood friend of a star kid to chill around them.”

Adhyayan also discussed the way casting directors treated him and how they bullied him. “I’ve had casting directors calling me at 2am and saying, ‘Abhi aaja uthkar’. They woke me up at odd times, asked me ki abhi aaja party karne raat ko, and I’ve gone to such parties. I was desperate for work. But after a few times, I felt like a dog. Usne abhi bola uth jaao, phir bola baith jaao. (They have said get up, then said sit down).” He added that couldn’t deny “because if you deny them, you are hurting their fragile egos.”
