Deepika Padukone reached the NCB’s Special Investigation Team (SIT) office in Mumbai earlier today. Reportedly, the ‘Padmaavat’ actress was first interrogated alone and is currently on a face to face interrogation with her talent manager Karishma Prakash. Karishma has been summoned for the second day by the agency.

On the other, actresses Shraddha Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan will also be questioned by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) today. The ‘Stree’ actress has reached the NCB’s zonal office in Mumbai to join the investigation of the drug case related to the death case of Sushant Singh Rajput as she was allegedly present at the success party of ‘Chhichhore’ which took place at the ‘Dil Bechara’ actor’s farmhouse which witnessed the consumption of narcotic substances.

The NCB has already arrested Rhea, Showik, Miranda, Sushant Singh Rajput’s personal staff Dipesh Sawant, and 16 others in the case so far. Rhea, Showik, Miranda, and Sawant were in judicial custody. The official said while the alleged chats of Deepika with her manager Prakash discussing drugs in October 2017 brought them into the probe net, Shradhha and Sara's role came to the fore following the questioning of Saha.
