Mumbai: In yet another dramatic twist in the drug angle probe into the Sushant Singh Rajput death, actors Deepika Padukone, Sara Ali Khan, Shraddha Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh have been summoned by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB). The Bollywood actors are to appear within the next 3 days.
This development has surfaced a day after Deepika Padukone's manager Karishma Prakash was questioned by the Narcotics Control Bureau on the basis of WhatsApp messages retrieved from Rhea Chakraborty's mobile phone. The chats reportedly revealed information about purchasing drugs.
Deepika Padukone's name has reportedly emerged in various drug-related chats, which has come as a big shocker.
WhatsApp messages on Karishma Prakash's phone have apparently revealed a conversation between one "D" and "K" on the procurement of drugs.
Rhea Chakraborty was arrested earlier after 59 grams of marijuana was seized during searches in Mumbai. The NRB has claimed that Rhea was arranging drugs for her now deceased boyfriend, Sushant Singh Rajput.
Sara Ali Khan and Shraddha Kapoor, both co-stars of Sushant Singh Rajput, were reportedly named during the questioning of Rhea Chakraborty.
Rhea has reportedly confessed to the NCB that she would party with Sara, Shraddha, Rakul and Sushant at the late actor's Lonavala farmhouse.
Rhea Chakraborty and her brother Showik were sent to jail till October 6. Two employees of Sushant Singh Rajput have also been arrested in the case.
