Sushant Singh Rajput probe: Rakul Preet Singh reportedly not at residence after being named by Rhea Chakraborty in drug case – Times of India

Actress Rakul Preet Singh, who was allegedly named by Rhea Chakraborty in a drug case that sprung out of the Sushant Singh Rajput death probe, has not been seen at her residence.

A report on Times Now claims that the security guards of her apartment building have maintained that the actress is not at her flat, stating that she is currently out shooting a film in the outskirts of Hyderabad. Since news broke about the actress being among 25 others named by Rhea in the ongoing drugs investigation by the Narcotics Control Bureau, she and her team have remained unavailable for comments.

The NCB is currently trying to unearth the drug mafia link in Bollywood. Several other film industries in the country have also come under the scanner. A Sandalwood and even a Tollywood drug scandal have come to light over the past weeks.

Meanwhile, in Telangana, a BJP Spokesperson demanded that the Chief Minister, K Chandrasekhar Rao initiate an investigation into the drug menace and added that he would also write to Home Minister Amit Shah and MoS Kishan Reddy regarding the same. According to reports, Rakul was appointed as a brand ambassador for the state’s ‘No to Drugs’ campaign.

On Friday it was revealed that Rakul, along with Sara Ali Khan and fashion designer Simmone Khambatta, who were friends with late Rajput are under the scanner of the NCB.

On the work front, Rakul’s shoot for a cross-border love story was cancelled after her co-star Arjun Kapoor tested positive for Covid-19.
