Now, actress Rakul Preet Singh will appear before the NCB today. The agency is also going to grill Deepika Padukone's talent manager Karishma Prakash on September 25.
On Wednesday, the Narcotics Control Bureau also summoned Deepika Padukone, Shraddha Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan for questioning in the drugs-related case. Reportedly, all three actresses will appear before the NCB for questioning on Saturday.
So far, the agency has questioned Rhea, Showik, Shruti Modi, Sushant's talent manager Jaya Saha, Kwan talent management agency CEO Dhruv Chitgopekar, 'Udta Punjab' Producer Madhu Mantena Varma among several others.
An NCB official informed: "The agency has registered two separate cases under the NDPS Act. There are few aspects in both cases which warrant examination of both Sara and Shraddha, so they will be examined in both cases."
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.
The Narcotics Control Bureau is the third central agency to investigate the death case of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput who was allegedly found hanging in his Bandra apartment on June 14, 2020.
