Later, he auditioned for multiple acting projects but failed to get good work. In 2017, he auditioned for the Hindi web series Jamtara – Sabka Number Ayega (2020), but it took almost three years for the series to go on floors and finally, he was chosen to act in the show. In an interview, he spoke about the same. He said,
I auditioned for Jamtara: Sabka Number Ayega but it took three years for it to release. In 2014-15, I even thought of quitting my job and even took part-time jobs but failed. Thankfully, I got through that phase because I was so absorbed in acting that I couldn’t think of doing anything else. Those were tough years, very tough in fact. But I had full support from my siblings and friends. Eventually, the release of Jamtara (2020) turned the tide. At the same time, actors like Amit Sial, who I consider a mentor, encouraged me a lot.”
In 2018, he made a cameo appearance in the Hindi television series Chandrashekhar. He played the role of Show in the television mini-series Kapow (2019). Some of his popular Hindi web series include Jamtara: Sabka Number Ayega Season 1 (2020), Kathmandu Connection (2021), Bhasad (2021), Jamtara – Sabka Number Ayega Season 2 (2021), and Grahan (2021).

- In an interview, Anshuman shared his experience of working with several Indian directors. He said,
As an actor, I did try my best and worked hard on my character, and all three directors I worked with were brilliant. I followed their ideas strictly as I sincerely believe that films (or TV) are a director’s medium. Last year, after the release of the first season, the lockdown came and everything came to a standstill. During that time, I worked religiously on my craft. This time, due to a tragedy in my family, I had to return to my hometown Mormokama (near Patna). So, I am with them and hope that I can go back as the situation gets better and the shoot starts. ”
