New Delhi [India], October 3 (ANI): Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty on Sunday dismissed speculations around the drug seizure on a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast last night as "mere speculations" and said Bollywood's name is always dragged into such things.

NCB Chief S N Pradhan said that further action will be taken based on whatever inputs are received from the detainees.
"The proceedings were already taking place. We are constantly gathering intelligence. We took action once the inputs that we received were confirmed. Wherever information is received, action will be taken and it does not matter with whom there is a connection. Our aim is a drug-free India," Pradhan said.
