With the Narcotics Control Bureau probing the drugs angle in actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death case, actress Deepika Padukone’s name got linked to the alleged drug nexus of Bollywood after her alleged chat with manager Karishma Prakash came forward. Since then, the reports say that Deepika was summoned by the NCB for investigation. According to the latest report, sources revealed that after Deepika Padukone’s name surfaced in the alleged drug chat with manager Karishma Prakash, Ranveer Singh is standing solidly behind the actress, who also has the support of both her families.
A source told Bollywood Hungama that both the families are firmly behind Deepika in the issue. The report quoted a filmmaker who said, “But I don’t think they are going to let this (the chat on drugs) defeat their morale. I think they will come out in Deepika’s defence very strongly very soon after they consider all their legal options.”
The report also stated that Ranveer Singh and his wife Deepika Padukone would be sending out a joint press statement soon. On the other hand, Republic reported that after Deepika received summons from the NCB, she called her team of lawyers to discuss the further course of action. The actress reportedly had a video call with her lawyers, which was also joined by Ranveer.
