Sara Ali Khan, Rakul Preet Singh and Simone Khambatta are under Narcotics Control Bureau scanner after Rhea Chakraborty confessed that the three actresses consumed narcotics substance. According to Times Now, Rhea specifically named the above-mentioned actresses in a 20-page-long statement to the NCB. The report further stated that the NCB is now focussing on A, B and C grade actors of the film industry who have been consuming narcotics substance. In another report published in Zee News, the actress is said to have named Sushant's friend and former manager Rohini Iyer and filmmaker Mukesh Chhabra in NCB interrogation for their alleged role in consuming banned drugs. For the unversed, Simone Khambatta is the childhood friend of actor Ranveer Singh. 

Sources claimed that Rhea told the agency that 80 per cent of Bollywood stars are on drugs. There are also reports that NCB is set to summon 25 prominent Bollywood stars in the drug investigations. Rhea, in her statement to NCB, had reportedly accepted her role in procuring drugs for Sushant and also handling the finances. Sushant was found dead in his home in Mumbai on June 14. At that time, Mumbai Police had concluded it was a case of suicide and investigated reasons that might have caused Sushant to end his life. His death is being investigated by CBI, Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and Enforcement Directorate (ED).Earlier on Friday, a Mumbai Special Court rejected bail applications of actress Rhea, her brother Showik and four others accused in the drugs-related case filed by Narcotics Control Bureau as part of an investigation into Sushant's death.
