However, the agency denied that they haven’t received any request from the Simmba actor.
On Friday, NCB has investigated actress Rakul Preet Singh, Deepika Padukone’s manager Karishma Prakash, and Dharma Productions’ executive producer Kshitij Ravi in the connection with the case.
Deepika’s name cropped up after her 2017 WhatsApp chat with the KWAN talent manager Karishma Prakash had surfaced where the actress is allegedly interacting about substances like ‘maal’ and ‘hash.’ Reportedly, Padukone was the admin of a WhatsApp group in which drugs were discussed.
