The drugs law enforcement agency has asked Rakul Preet Singh, Simone Khambatta and Shruti Modi to come to the NCB head office on Thursday (September 24). Deepika's name came to the fore after her WhatsApp chats with her manager Karishma Prakash surfaced during the NCB investigation. In the chats, the 'Chhapaak' actress allegedly asked Karishma to bring 'hash' to a party which she was attending. The NCB summoned Karisma Prakash and KWAN talent management's CEO Dhruv Chitgopekar for questioning in connection with the probe. Prakash sought an exemption from the NCB probe citing her ill health and didn't arrive for the interrogation on Tuesday (September 22). The federal agency grilled Sushant's talent manager Jaya Saha for the third consecutive day. The officials also interrogated filmmaker Madhu Mantena Verma and TV couple Sanam Johar and Abigail Pande as part of the investigation. The NCB registered a case on the request of the ED after the agency found alleged chats between Rhea Chakraborty and Sushant's house manager Samuel Miranda. The agency has arrested Rhea, her brother Showik Chakraborty and others in connection with the case. Watch this space for more updates!
