Here's Karan Johar reply to the NCB notice
Karan Johar, in his response to the notice issued by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), has claimed that no drug was consumed
Mumbai: Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar, in his response to the notice issued by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), has claimed that no drug was consumed during a party at his house last year, an official said on Friday.
The anti-drugs agency had issued the notice to Johar over a viral video allegedly showing drugs being consumed at a party hosted at his residence, the official said.
"Johar was asked to give details of the party. Accordingly, the NCB on Friday received a reply from him to the notice," he said.
"In the reply, Johar maintained that no drug was consumed at the party," the official added.
The NCB had received a complaint regarding the video of a party, which was attended by top Bollywood stars last year, he said.
The complaint was about movie stars apparently seen in a 'drugged' state in the video.
Sirsa had claimed that he had registered a complaint about this video with the Mumbai police in August last year, but no probe was conducted.
After the video went viral, Johar had issued a public statement in connection with that video, saying reports of drug consumption at his party were slanderous and malicious.
