Comedian Bharti Singh and her husband's arrest has brought into discussion once again the issue of the rising drug menace in Bollywood as well as in the country and a strong need for a check on this.
They were arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) over alleged possession and use of marijuana and were granted bail by a Mumbai court today. Their arrest came as part of the NCB expanded probe into the alleged drug use in Bollywood, which started after the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput in June.
In the last few months, top Bollywood actors - Arjun Rampal, Deepika Padukone, Sara Ali Khan, Rakulpreet Singh, and Shraddha Kapoor - have been questioned by the NCB as a part of the probe.
