Most of us are aware that Kangana Ranaut and Adhyayan Suman dated at the time they were filming ‘Raaz: The Mystery Continues’ in 2008. The coup;e broke up soon after. However, what followed was a lot of controversial statements in public. Adhyayan’s father Shekhar Suman too, had slammed Kangana multiple times on social media or in interviews. 

But now, years later, the ‘Dekh Bhai Dekh’ actor has mentioned that he was never against Adhyayan’s relationship with Kangana.

Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, he said, “I was aware of every single moment. But I 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 further said in the same interview, “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.”

Talking about the disastrous end to their relationship, Shekhar 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.”
