The Bollywood industry has been facing tough times of late. Several A-list celebrities were summoned by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) last year. Nora’s summons came as a shock to the entertainment industry and many had expressed their concerns.
Several pictures and videos of Nora stepping into the ED office had surfaced on the internet and reportedly the actress was grilled for an entire day by the officials.
Sources said Nora’s statement was recorded under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). Actor Jacqueline Fernandez has also been summoned to join the probe, reported Indian Express.
