Another praised the NCB for the effort. “Three more druggies of Bollywood exposed. Great work NCB. Clean Bollywood, don't close this matter until all are exposed and arrested,” the user said.

According to reports, the three people are already under the radar of NCB. Sources quoted by Pinkvila revealed that there are many more people associated with the Bollywood who are under the scanner of the drug agency. The sources have claimed that  Chakraborty during her interrogation, specifically named the above-mentioned individuals who consumed narcotics substance. The outlet also reports that Chakraborty initially refused to claims that she consumed drugs, but later confessed to taking them.

After days of intense speculation and three days of tough grilling, the NCB on Tuesday arrestedChakraborty in connection with its ongoing probe to unravel the nexus of the drug in the film industry, officials said. 

Reacting to the development, Chakraborty's lawyer Satish Maneshinde termed the arrest a "travesty of justice" in a scathing statement targeting the family of Sushant.

"Three central agencies hounding a single woman -- just because she was in love with a drug addict, suffering from mental health issues for several years under the care of five leading psychiatrists in Mumbai, who ended up committing suicide due to consumption of illegally administered medicines and used drugs," Maneshinde said.
