Mumbai: Actors Shraddha Kapoor and Nora Fatehi are set to receive relief in a high-profile 2022 case, with the Mumbai Police reportedly finding no evidence linking them to the alleged network, according to reports.
Social media personality Orhan Awatramani, popularly known as Orry, along with actor Siddhanth Kapoor and politician Zeeshan Siddique, are also expected to be cleared in the supplementary chargesheet.
Case dates back to 2022 arrest
The case originated in August 2022 when Mumbai Police’s Crime Branch and Anti-Narcotics Cell arrested an alleged drug trafficker and seized mephedrone worth around Rs 1.19 lakh.
During interrogation, the accused reportedly claimed to have supplied contraband substances at parties attended by several public figures, leading to multiple names surfacing during the investigation.
Celebrities questioned during probe
In 2025, several individuals named during the probe, including Shraddha Kapoor and Nora Fatehi, were questioned by the Anti-Narcotics Cell as part of the investigation process.
However, officials reportedly did not find material evidence establishing any connection between these individuals and the alleged supply network.
Supplementary chargesheet being prepared
According to sources cited in reports, investigators have completed their probe and are preparing to file a supplementary chargesheet. While initial chargesheets were filed against a few accused persons directly linked to the case, the latest findings indicate insufficient evidence to proceed against the celebrities.
The investigation is expected to continue against those allegedly involved in the supply chain, while names lacking evidence are being excluded from further proceedings.
Public reaction and response
The development has brought clarity to a case that had attracted widespread attention due to the involvement of well-known personalities from the entertainment industry.
Reacting to the reports, Orhan Awatramani shared a response on social media, expressing his displeasure over the manner in which his name had been linked to the case earlier.
Conclusion
The reported findings mark a significant turn in the investigation, with authorities focusing on evidence-based action. While the case continues against the accused individuals, the exclusion of certain names highlights the importance of substantiated proof in high-profile investigations.
