In actor Sushant Singh Rajput case, the Narcotics Control Bureau arrested Rhea Chakraborty on Tuesday in connection to the drugs angle. Rhea’s arrest came after she was interrogated three times in a row by the NCB officials, after her brother Showik Chakraborty’s arrest. Later, it was reported that Rhea named 15 Bollywood celebrities who consume drugs during her questioning. Now, as Bollywood tackles with drug abuse allegations, Kangana Ranaut’s old video from March where she claims to be a drug addict resurfaces.
On her social media handles, Kangana Ranaut’s team shared videos of the actress during the Navratras. Back in March, in a video shared on Kangana’s official social media handles, the actress claimed that she used to be a drug addict. In the video, the Manikarnika actress said, “Soon as I ran away from my house, I became a film star in a couple of years and a drug addict. So much stuff was happening in my life, I fell into the hands of such people and all of this happened while I was still a teenager. Imagine how dangerous I am.”

She said ‘Let’s do cocaine in the night.’ I had smoked hash with her a couple of times before and didn’t like it so I said no. I remember getting into the biggest argument that night because I said no to cocaine,” Adhyayan had told
