"What's really important are the legal proceedings," Taapsee Pannu said about Aryan Khan's arrest in a drugs case.
Actress Taapsee Pannu is not one to mince her words. An opinionated individual, Taapsee has seldom shied away from speaking her mind. From speaking up on Rihanna's tweet on the farmers' protests to taking Kangana Ranaut head-on in a Twitter war of words, Taapsee Pannu has backed down from sharing her views on controversial topics, nor has she stepped back from calling out individuals even if they are from the same industry as she.
Recently, on being asked about Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan being trolled online following his arrest in a drugs case, and whether it is baggage that comes with being a superstar's family, in an interview with ETimes, Taapsee Pannu said, "That's a part and parcel of being a public figure. And, that's a baggage every public figure's family also carries, whether they like it or not. You have the positives of enjoying a star status and this is the kind of negative that also comes with it. If it's a family of a big star, you also enjoy the perks of that, right? So, there's a negative side also that you end up facing. As far as you're prepared to face the consequences after going through the trial officially, you know you don't really have to bother. I think with that kind of stardom level, you're aware of the scrutiny that's going to happen. It's not like ki kahan se aagaya pata nahi chala. I'm sure they know the kind of repercussions of things that are going to happen. With that kind of star status, that person is very well aware of what can happen."
Stating that what really matters is that the family is prepared to go through the legal process and fight it out the court while mentioning that it did matter what people said, Taapsee further averred, "As far as they are ready to go through the legal process which is the law of the land. People keep saying anything, you know. Today they're saying something, tomorrow they'll say something else, and day after something else will come; so that's not important. What's really important are the legal proceedings and as far as you're ready for that, nothing else really matters."
Mumbai's Esplanade court on Friday rejected the bail plea of Aryan Khan, Arbaz Seth Merchant and Munmun Dhamecha, in the case related to the seizure of drugs following a raid at a party on a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast.
Speaking to ANI, Advocate Ashwini Achari who is representing second accused Arbaz Seth Merchant said, "The court has rejected the bail application for now because the application was not maintainable. So, now we will move to sessions court and file a bail plea."
An NCB team busted an alleged drugs party on a cruise ship that was on its way to Goa at mid-sea on October 2 night. A total of 18 people, including a Nigerian national, have been arrested in the case related to the seizure of drugs following a raid at a party on a cruise ship off the Mumbai coast.
