Aryan Khan drugs case: Decoding Shah Rukh Khan's son and Ananya Panday's friendship
On Thursday, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) visited Chunky Panday’s house. Three NCB officials, including a female officer, served a summons to Ananya Panday. The actress was asked to appear before the NCB at their office on the same day at 2 pm for further questioning. Meanwhile, another NCB team visited Shah Rukh Khan’s Mumbai residence, Mannat. The search operation followed right after the central agency submitted chat messages of Aryan Khan with an "upcoming Bollywood actress" to a Mumbai court, and claimed that both were discussing drugs. Ananya shares a close bond with Aryan and Suhana and the trio often hangs out together at parties and events. Here are some pics of them together...

Ananya Panday is SRK's daughter Suhana Khan's bestie. She shares a close bond with Aryan Khan as well. In an old interview, when Ananya was quizzed about Suhana and Aryan, she had said that both of the Khan kids are extremely talented and are meant for bigger things in life. She had revealed that Aryan is more inclined towards direction, which he is apparently great at. Panday had mentioned that he is a very good writer, and is witty and smart too.

NCB summons
Recently, the Narcotics Control Bureau summoned Ananya Panday to their office. An NCB officer spoke about the same and said, ''The investigation is going on. When NCB officials visit a person or location for questioning that does not mean the person is a culprit or being investigated. There are several procedures being followed.'' This comes after the central agency submitted chat messages of Aryan with an "upcoming Bollywood actress" to a Mumbai court and claimed that both were discussing drugs.
