In recent times, actress Kangana Ranaut has claimed that 99 percent of the film industry does drugs. This came into picture once the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) began investigating the drugs angle in the death case of Sushant Singh Rajput. Actress Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik and few others have since been arrested. Meanwhile, actor and BJP MP Ravi Kishan also made statements about the film industry that did not sit well with many including Anurag Kashyap.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1133708 size-full\" title=\"Anurag Kashyap claims Ravi Kishan used to smoke weed for the longest of time\" src=\"https:\/\/media2.bollywoodhungama.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Anurag-Kashyap-claims-Ravi-Kishan-used-to-smoke-weed-for-the-longest-of-time-1.jpg\" alt=\"Anurag Kashyap claims Ravi Kishan used to smoke weed for the longest of time\" width=\"620\" height=\"450\"\/><\/p>\n<p>During the monsoon session of Parliament in Lok Sabha, Ravi Kishan said, \u201cDrug addiction is in the film industry too. Several people have been apprehended. The NCB has been doing very good work. I urge the central government to take strict action against the culprits soon. Give them a befitting punishment and bring an end to this conspiracy by neighbouring countries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A day ago, Anurag Kashyap spoke to journalist Faye D\u2019Souza about Ravi Kishan\u2019s claims and claimed that for the longest of time, the actor used to smoke weed. \u201cRavi Kishan acted in my last film <em>Mukkabaaz.<\/em> Ravi Kishan starts his day by saying Jai Shiv Shankar, Jai Bam Bhole. Jai shiv Shambhu For the longest period of his time, he has been somebody who has used weed. It is life. Everybody knows it. The whole world knows. There\u2019s not a single person who doesn\u2019t know that Ravi Kishan does not smoke up. He might have quit now, that he has become a minister, he might have cleaned up,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut do you include that in drugs? No. I am not judging Ravi, because I have never seen weed as a drug. \u2018Abuse\u2019 is not the word. He used to smoke up. He has always been functional, he has always done his job well, it did not make him dysfunctional, did not make him a monster. It did not do anything that people associate with drugs,\u201d he added. \u201cSo when he talks about it, when he takes a self-righteous stand, I have a problem with that,\u201d Kashyap added.<\/p>\n<p>This statement irked Samajwadi politician and actor Jaya Bachchan as well. During the monsoon session of parliament in Rajya Sabha earlier this week, she slammed Kishan by saying, \u201cEntertainment industry in our country which provides direct employment every day to 5 lakh people and indirect employment to 5 million people. At a time when the financial situation is in a depressing state, and employment is at the worst level, in order to divert the attention of the people, we are being used to be flogged by the social media and the government\u2019s non-support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJis thaali mein khaatein hain, usi mein chhed kartein hain (They bite the hand that feeds them),\u201d she further said.<\/p>\n<h4>ALSO READ: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/features\/ranveer-singh-was-rejected-in-an-audition-for-shaitaan-no-studio-wanted-to-put-money-on-him-reveals-anurag-kashyap\/\">&#8220;Ranveer Singh was rejected in an audition for Shaitaan, no studio wanted to put money on him&#8221; &#8211; reveals Anurag Kashyap<\/a><\/h4>\n<h4\/><\/p>\n<h2 alt=\"Bollywood News\" title=\"Bollywood News\" style=\"font-size: 0.9rem;\">BOLLYWOOD NEWS<\/h2>\n<p>Catch us for latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/bollywood\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Bollywood News\" title=\"Bollywood News\">Bollywood News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movies\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"New Bollywood Movies\" title=\"New Bollywood Movies\">New Bollywood Movies<\/a> update, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/box-office-collections\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Box office collection\" title=\"Box office collection\">Box office collection<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movie-release-dates\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"New Movies Release\" title=\"New Movies Release\">New Movies Release <\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/hindi\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Bollywood News Hindi\" title=\"Bollywood News Hindi\">Bollywood News Hindi<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Entertainment News\" title=\"Entertainment News\">Entertainment News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"Bollywood News Today\" title=\"Bollywood News Today\">Bollywood News Today<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/movies\/\" style=\"color:#000;font-weight: bold;\" alt=\"upcoming movies 2020\" title=\"upcoming movies 2020\">upcoming movies 2020 <\/a> and stay updated with latest hindi movies only on Bollywood Hungama.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodhungama.com\/news\/bollywood\/anurag-kashyap-claims-ravi-kishan-used-smoke-weed-longest-time\/\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The drug scandal has taken over various film industries.
