Bollywood star questioned in India drugs case

Bollywood star Deepika Padukone has been questioned by India's narcotics board in an investigation linked to the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.

According to BBC, Padukone was among six people including two other actresses to be summoned for questioning over the case.

Rajput's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty was arrested earlier this month for allegedly buying drugs for him but she has denied these claims.

The case has fuelled months of media coverage and speculation in India.

The Narcotics Control Bureau widened its investigation of the case by questioning Padukone for six hours in Mumbai.

Meanwhile, actresses Sara Ali Khan and Shraddha Kapoor were also questioned separately at another of NCB's offices.

None have been accused by the authorities of any wrongdoing.
