Shared Element Transitions not working when exit from fragment to Activity containing Viewpager

Question

I have a RecyclerView inside the fragment in a Viewpager and sharing element from an item in the RecyclerView to a DetailActivity containing a fragment. I am setting transition inside the DetailActivity for the entry and exit of the fragment.

public static void sharedTransitionReceiver(Activity activity, Fragment fragment) {
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
        activity.getWindow().getEnterTransition().setDuration(500);
        Slide slideTransition = new Slide(Gravity.START);
        slideTransition.setDuration(500);
        fragment.setReenterTransition(slideTransition);
        fragment.setExitTransition(slideTransition);
        fragment.setSharedElementEnterTransition(new ChangeBounds());
    }
}

It is working just fine but when I navigate back to the previous activity containing the Viewpager exit animations are not working and item won't animates back to their original position.

Call setSharedElementReturnTransition() to specify how the View moves from the second Fragment back to the first Fragment when the user hits the back button. — Burak Cakir, Oct 06 '16 at 13:37
@BurakCakir As per the docs return animation is the reverse of entry animation by default. — mihirjoshi, Oct 06 '16 at 13:57

After 4 hours of effort, I cannot imagine the answer to be that simple. I was calling finish() after popping out every fragment from stack instead I have to use supportFinishAfterTransition();.
