Actor Shekhar Suman has shown his support for Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav, the chief ministerial candidate of the Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance).
Suman tweeted in support of Tejashwi after an early trend showed that Tejashwi has taken a lead in the Raghopur seat, where he is contesting against the Bharatiya Janata Party's Satish Kumar.
Suman wrote, "Tejashwi Yadav has taken a huge lead in Bihar. He will be the next and the youngest CM.Congrats.He is the first one whom I met regarding Sushant Singh. I hope when he comes to power he pursues the case vehemently."

Suman said that he met Tejashwi in June to discuss the death case of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Tejashwi was ahead in very early trends as counting of votes started for the 243-member Bihar legislative assembly.
For the unversed, Suman was alleged to join the Rashtriya Janata Dal after he met Tejashwi in connection with the Sushant case. However, he clarified in a tweet later that he had no political ambitions.
"I’ve no taste for politics,no inclination,no aptitude,no temperament.if given the choice i wdn’t like to touch it with a ten feet barge pole.ppl are trying hard to stop me from going ahead with #justiceforSushantforum by insinuating ive political ambitions," he said.
Suman has been crusading for justice for Sushant and was one of the most vocal supporters of a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe.
"14th is Diwali which is bright n auspicious. 14th is also a black date bcoz we lost SSR on the14th,six months ago. What a paradox! So plz light diyas in his memory n pray that his soul shines wherever it is n forever. The path to justice is tough but we can pray," he wrote recently.
