They had reportedly told the investigators that they are supplying drugs to film celebrities, software engineers, and even students of some corporate schools. Mobile numbers of some Tollywood celebrities were allegedly found in their contact lists.
The excise department had constituted SIT for a comprehensive probe. A total of 12 cases were registered, 30 people were arrested while 62 individuals including 11 people connected with Tollywood were examined by the SIT under section 67 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and section 161 of Criminal Procedure Code.
The SIT had collected blood, hair, nail and other samples from some of those who appeared before it for questioning and sent them for analysis.
Actors Ravi Teja, Charmme Kaur, Mumaith Khan, director Puri Jagannath and young actors Tarun Kumar and P. Navadeep were among the stars who were questioned by the SIT.
Cinematographer Shyam K. Naidu, actors Subbaraju, Tanish, Nandu and Ravi Teja’s driver Srinivas were also among those questioned.
The SIT filed charge sheet in eight out of 12 cases. It, however, gave clean chit to the film personalities who were questioned as part of the investigation.

‘I Won’t Blame Anyone’: Ajay Devgn Reacts To Controversy Over Pakistani Actress Hania Aamir’s Casting In Sardaar Ji 3

Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn, who is gearing up for the release of Son of Sardaar 2, reacted to trolls criticising actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh for working with Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in his recently-released film Sardaar Ji 3.
On Friday (July 11), during the trailer launch event of Son of Sardaar 2, Ajay was asked about the backlash Diljit has been receiving in India ever since he shared the trailer of the film featuring Hania. While the film did not release in India, the actor faced backlash and a section of social media users also called him ‘anti-national’, ‘insensitive’ and ‘shameless’.
Reacting to it, Ajay said it wouldn’t be right on his part to take a side in the matter since he is not in Dosanjh’s shoes.
“I don’t know where the trolling is coming from, what’s right, what’s wrong. He must be dealing with his own problems. Others are speaking from their own point of view. So when there are two different perspectives, they can be resolved by sitting down and talking,” the actor reportedly said.
He added, “He’s thinking from his side, you’re thinking from yours. It doesn’t work that way. I won’t blame anyone. I won’t say that anyone is right or wrong in this.”
The trolling began after Diljit promoted his Punjabi film with Hania amid India-Pakistan tensions. FWICE had lashed out Diljit for collaborating with Hania despite a renewed ban on Pakistani celebs in India following the Pahalgam terror attack.
Earlier, it was reported that Diljit had been removed from his upcoming Bollywood film Border 2, and that Punjabi actor Ammy Virk might replace him in the sequel. However, Ammy’s team denied the rumours and clarified to Hindustan Times that there was no truth to the reports.
Also, a few days back, FWICE revealed that they lifted ban on Diljit after which he has been allowed to shoot for Border 2. Reportedly, the film body claimed that the patriotic film’s producer, Bhushan Kumar, pleaded them personally to let Diljit work.
Meanwhile, Sardaar Ji 3 released overseas on June 27 and it has become the highest-grossing Punjabi film of 2025.
