After the demise of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, there has been a long debate in Bollywood about drugs. Many celebrities are being questioned by the NCI. The drugs connection was revealed in the actor’s death investigation and then celebrities like Deepika Padukone, Sara Ali Khan and Shraddha Kapoor can be questioned. Not only these celebrities but also Sushant Singh Rajput girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and his brother are also in custody. This case has taken a big step connecting drugs to the death of the late actor. Only a few actors have come forward and share their views on this case.
At the same time, celebs are taking their side of drugs, which now also includes Akshay Kumar’s name. He too has given his response on the matter through a video. Actually, he has supported Bollywood in the video and said that it is not that all people associated with Bollywood take drugs. This video went viral and has caused hot topic in the media and to the audience. In the video, Akshay admitted that the drugs problem prevailed in the film industry, but he requested people not to generalise and think that every person associated with the industry has drug links. The superstar also mentioned in his video that any negative news could have a negative impact on a person’s reputation and career. Thus, he requested the media to be sensitive while taking names.
Many Bollywood celebrities have supported Akshay Kumar on this.
