Sources reported, quoting Bengaluru police, that he was among six people allegedly found to have consumed drugs.

Bollywood has been on the the national drug agencies' radar in particular since last year, when, in the case related to Sushant Singh Rajput's death, actor Rhea Chakraborty reportedly spilled the beans on a long list of peers from her fraternity as having consumed narcotic substances. 

Ever since then, the NCB has summoned a number of celebrities from the Hindi film industry in relation to consumption of drugs.

However, in some of the cases registered, the role of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) had come under the scanner.

The NCB had given a clean chit to Aryan Khan in the drugs-on-cruise case on May 27, severely damaging the agency's image. 

Aryan, the son of actor Shah Rukh Khan, had spent 26 days in jail last year. And though there has been a course correction charges against six persons have been dropped accountability, or the lack of it, was an elephant in the room.
