These are the most prominent names that emerged in a growing investigation into the link between drugs and the film industry, which emerged during the investigations into the death of Sushant Singh Rajput on June 14.
Deepika Padukone’s manager, Karishma Prakash, had been questioned yesterday in a case that the Office of Narcotics Control had filed based on WhatsApp messages retrieved from Rhea Chakraborty’s mobile phone, which revealed conversations about acquiring drugs.
According to the PTI news agency, investigators have found WhatsApp messages on Karishma Prakash’s phone, revealing a conversation between a “D” and a “K” about buying drugs.
Rhea Chakraborty, a 28-year-old actor, was arrested in a separate case on record after 59 grams of marijuana were seized during searches in Mumbai. She has been accused by the anti-drug agency of arranging drugs for Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput, her boyfriend.
She and her brother Showik Chakraborty were sent to jail until October 6. Two Sushant Singh Rajput employees and suspected drug dealers linked to the film fraternity are also among those arrested.
The names Sara Ali Khan and Shraddha Kapoor, both Sushant Singh Rajput co-stars, allegedly came up during the questioning of Rhea Chakraborty.
