With a drug racket busted two weeks back in Hyderabad, it revealed the association of Tollywood celebrities with drug mafia. Several Tollywood have been summoned and they have been asked to appear before CIT in this month. Though the cops showed no interest in revealing the names of the film celebrities involved, media has been speculating many names with subtle indications instead of revealing the names directly. Top producer Suresh Babu has been hit by the rumours.
He responded saying “Me and my family are not involved in any drug mafia and we did not receive any notices. We are not called by anyone as we have no connections. No one from my family is involved and keep us away from your speculations. As one needs to take an initiative, me and Allu Aravind stepped out to address the media and Tollywood”.
A section of media has been speculating that Rana Daggubati and his brother have been closely associated with drug mafia for which Suresh Babu responded. The Telangana excise department issued notices for all the celebrities involved and asked them to appear before them between July 19th and 27th.
