Deepika Padukone's Manager Karishma Prakash Summoned By NCB Again

Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone and her manager Karishma Prakash were questioned by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) a few weeks back in connection with the Bollywood drugs case. The duo was summoned by the NCB after their drug chat from 2017 went viral on social media. Along with Deepika Padukone and Karishma Prakash, the investigation team interrogated some of the other popular faces of Bollywood like Shraddha Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan and Rakul Preet Singh.

Now, it has been reported that Karishma Prakash has been summoned by the NCB once again for further interrogation. The NCB team had raided the residence of Karishma Prakash on Tuesday (October 27, 2020), and recovered a small quantity of hashish. The team decided to send summons to Karishma Prakash on Wednesday (October 28, 2020) to join the probe after she reportedly went absconding.

The celebrity manager's name cropped up once again while the NCB was interrogating one of the recently arrested drug peddlers. Sameer Wankhede, Zonal Director, NCB revealed the news during his recent interaction with the media. The official was quoted saying, "Karishma Prakash (Deepika Padukone's manager) has been summoned for investigation tomorrow".

Along with Deepika Padukone and her manager Karishma Prakash, renowned Bollywood actresses Sara Ali Khan, Shraddha Kapoor, and Rakul Preet Singh were earlier summoned by the NCB. The celebrities were interrogated for hours in connection with the Bollywood drug nexus case, which came to light during the Sushant Singh Rajput death probe.

Sushant's girlfriend and actress Rhea Chakraborty and her brother Showik Chakraborty were also arrested in the drugs case by the NCB. While Rhea is out on bail, her brother is still in custody.
