After exactly a month in jail for her alleged involvement in a drug cartel, Rhea Chakraborty received bail from the Bombay High Court on Wednesday. The development led to ecstatic reactions from Bollywood stars like Taapsee Pannu, Anubhav Sinha, Farhan Akhtar, among others. They, however, got trolled massively as netizens asked if she had won the ‘gold medal’ or ‘Nobel prize’.
Rhea Chakraborty’s bail celebration mocked by netizens
Taapsee Pannu, Anubhav Sinha, Anubhav Sinha and other stars responded by highlighting the ‘hell’ she went through, how her incarceration had fulfilled the ‘egos’ of those seeking ‘justice for Sushant’ for their ‘agendas’, apart from words like ‘finally’.
Hope her time in jail has sufficed the egos of a lot of people out there who in the name of justice for Sushant fulfilled their personal/professional agendas.Praying she doesn’t become bitter towards the life she has ahead of her.

Rhea Chakraborty gets bail
After being arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on September 8 and taken to Byculla jail, Rhea was granted bail by the Bombay High Court on Wednesday. She was provided bail on a surety of Rs one lakh.
She has been ordered to inform the investigating officer if she plans to leave Mumbai. The prime accused has also been asked to report to police for 10 days, at a police station nearest to her. The actor has also been ordered to deposit her passport and not travel outside the country without permission. .
The development came a day after a special NDPS court had extended her custody till October 20.
Sushant’s staff Dipesh Sawant and Samuel Miranda were also granted bail on furnishing of PR bond of Rs.50,000 each. However, Rhea’s brother Showik and alleged drug peddler Abdul Parihar were denied bail and will continue to remain in jail.
Meanwhile, the Central Bureau of Investigation team is back in Mumbai after major developments in the case. The confirmation of Rhea Chakraborty’s neighbour that she had met Sushant is set to be probed by the agency. Apart from that, SSR’s family has also written to the CBI, seeking a fresh panel to analyse the forensics after Dr Sudhir Gupta’s flip flop, from highlighting the ‘forensically unsuitable’ crime scene to declaring it a ‘suicide.’
