In a series of tweets, Shekhar Suman said that the "cabal" within Bollywood will “oppress, suppress and persecute you” and that some members of Bollywood have “ganged up” against him and his son, actor Adhyayan Suman.

It will oppress, suppress and persecute you till you are finished. It happened with SSR,” referring to the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
This was followed by a second tweet, where he wrote, “It will happen to others too. That's the way the cookie crumbles in the industry. Take it or leave it. And Priyanka decided to leave. And thank God she did. For now, we have a true-blue global icon representing India in Hollywood. As they say, every cloud has a silver lining.”
