Kangana Ranaut took to Twitter to express her sense of victory after Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Wednesday sent a summons to top Bollywood actors including Deepika Padukone, Sara Ali Khan, Shraddha Kapoor and Rakulpreet Singh. She hit out that the "Bullywood mafia" and claimed that with the turn of events taking place as NCB's probe progresses, the A-listers must have been regretting their "cruelty, sadism and silence".

It was Kangana's bare-it-all interview with Republic Media Network that kickstarted the fight for justice for late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Kangana had exposed Bollywood's mafia-like practices where nepotism and bullying are commonplace for struggling actors and she also hit out at the "privileged" and the "powerful" people in the industry. The investigation into Sushant's mysterious death and the subsequent arrest of his girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty led to the uncovering of Bollywood's massive drug nexus which the NCB is currently probing further.

There are at least two angles running in tandem in terms of the NCB's investigation into the link between Bollywood and drugs - regarding the Sushant Singh Rajput-Rhea Chakraborty and associated angle and regarding Manjinder Singh Sirsa's complaint about a 2019 Bollywood party video that had emerged earlier in which a lot of Bollywood stars were present.
