Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut, who is currently garnering controversies with her tweets and statements, recently said that 99 per cent of Bollywood use drugs and actor Vicky Kaushal is a cocaine addict. Now actor Rahul Dev reacted to her statements and told HT, “I am a complete outsider. I am 50 and, I have never done drugs in my life. I have been a part of showbiz for 30 years if you count modelling, and what I am finding disappointing is that people are saying sab drug addict hain.”
“When I have to do a stunt, I have to jump from 16th floor or the 11th floor, would I be able to do it if I was on drugs , you need your mind to be so attentive of you miss the centre, you will lose your life. All actors do stunts, so how can somebody do that while they are on drugs?” Rahul Dev questions. The Champion actor added, “I know a lot of people who drink alcohol. But I am a teetotaler. What I don’t like is that the narrative is about all actors- big, small or medium, they all take drugs. I am 112 films old and if was a drug addict I would not have survived so long.”
Reacting to Vicky Kaushal being called ‘cocaine addict, Rahul Dev replied, “He is a very hard working actor. I have done 5 or 6 films with his father, Shyam Kaushal and they are very nice people. Vicky is such a fabulous actor and he gets into the character in all his films so well. If he works so hard, do you think he could do it because he took drugs? Think about it. It is such an irresponsible statement about industry that poori industry bakwas hai,”
