On Friday, she was called in to record her statement. She was again asked if she consumes drugs, whether she consumed drugs with Aryan Khan, their suppliers, etc. Ananya has denied all the allegations and said that she has never consumed or supplied drugs. An NCB officer stated, "Just because she is being questioned does not mean she's an accused."
