The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), investigating the alleged drug syndicate in Bollywood, on Tuesday summoned Deepika Padukone's talent manager Karishma Prakash for allegedly procuring drugs for the actress. The officers said they will soon question Padukone as well.

Karishma Prakash, who is associated with KWAN talent management, was named by Jaya Saha — former talent manager of the later Sushant Singh Rajput — who was questioned by the NCB officers at their guest house in South Mumbai for the second consecutive day on Tuesday.
