Tollywood Drugs Case: The Tollywood film industry has recently found itself entangled in a series of controversies, with the spotlight squarely on a drug-related case. The Telangana Anti-Narcotics Bureau has taken decisive action against film financiers and other individuals associated with this case. Actor Navdeep has also faced questioning by the authorities in connection with these developments. Most recently, on the 5th of this month, director Mantena Vasuvarma was apprehended by the Madapur police in connection with the same drug-related case.
In June, the authorities arrested film writer Manneri Prithvikrishna, also known as Diwakar, and Rahul Telore, an event organizer based in Pune, in connection with the same case. This apprehension took place on June 19, and during their arrest, 70 grams of cocaine were seized from their possession. Subsequently, as the investigation unfolded, Vasuvarma’s name emerged, leading to his arrest on the 5th of this month. It’s worth noting that the police have identified Mumbai-based Victor, a key figure in the drug supply chain, as currently evading capture.
