Actor Shekhar Suman has made headlines by joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) at the party headquarters in Delhi. The news was shared by news agency ANI through a video posted on X on Tuesday. In the video, Shekhar Suman is welcomed with a flower bouquet and poses for photos with other BJP members.

His decision to join the BJP comes amidst the ongoing Lok Sabha Elections, although it remains unclear if he will contest the elections himself. After officially joining the party, Shekhar Suman expressed his gratitude and positive outlook. He stated, "Till yesterday, I did not know that I would be sitting here today because many things in life happen knowingly or unknowingly. I have come here with very positive thinking, and I would like to thank God that he ordered me to come here." He also extended his gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and other BJP leaders.

Emphasizing the importance of action over mere words, Shekhar Suman highlighted his commitment to making a difference. He stated, "When you start with positive thinking, then everything goes well. I don't have any negative thoughts in my mind. I'm just thinking about the country." He further added, "There is a difference in saying and doing. If I want, I can sit here all day and give a long speech and even better than many. I can give it for a long time but it has no value. There will be value when I do something and show you all."

Apart from his political venture, Shekhar Suman has been actively involved in the entertainment industry. He was recently seen portraying the character of Zulfiqar Ahmed in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's directorial web series "Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar."  It features a stellar cast including Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sanjeeda Sheikh, Sharmin Segal, Taha Shah Badussha, and Adhyayan Suman. "Heeramandi" is streaming on Netflix.
