Following the Tollywood drug scandal, government officials have been on the tails of the South Indian film fraternity. The sleuths of the State Excise Department were on alert as they visited Ramanaidu Studios in Hyderabad on Wednesday, owned by Baahubali star Rana Daggubati‘s family. The government sleuths cited the reason of visit as to check a parcel that was delivered to the Daggubati’s from all the way to Dubai.
When speaking to Hyderabad Times, Rana Daggubati’s father Suresh Babu Daggubati said there was nothing suspicious about the parcel. He said, “I had ordered this equipment which is a back rest for my seat. That’s all there is to it. The officials came, checked the parcel and left. It’s a frivolous issue really.”

Recently in an interview, Rana commented on this issue saying: “Honestly, the whole thing has been blown out of proportion. If a filmmaker or an actor takes drugs, it really doesn’t bother me. They are adults and it’s their lives and they can do whatever they want. I don’t give a damn if you take drugs.”
He added saying, “The dangerous story about school kids doing drugs worries me. That’s something that needs to be taken more seriously and addressed immediately. When youngsters who don’t have a mind of their own are doing drugs, it scares me.” On the career front, Rana awaits the release of Telugu-Tamil political drama “Nene Raju, Nene Mantri”.
