‘He’s a kid, give him a breather’: Suniel Shetty on Aryan Khan being detained by NCB

Actor Suniel Shetty on Sunday urged his fans and media not to jump to conclusions and give Aryan a breather.

He was reacting to the Narcotics Control Bureau’s raid at an alleged rave party on a cruise ship. Eight people, including Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan Khan have been detained by the NCB for questioning.

“I would like to say that wherever there is a raid, several people are caught. And we assume that this child must have consumed drugs or this child must have done it. But the proceedings are on, let’s give that child a breather.”

Further adding, “Whenever something happens in Bollywood, the media scrutinises everything and jumps to conclusions. Give the child an opportunity. Let the real reports come out. Baccha hai (He’s a kid). Taking care of him is our responsibility.”

Apart from Aaryan Khan, seven others namely — Munmun Dhamecha, Nupur Sarika, Ismeet Singh, Mohak Jaswal, Vikrant Chhoker, Gomit Chopra, and Arbaaz Merchant have been detained, an NCB official said, adding that different drugs like MDMA, ecstasy, cocaine, MD (mephedrone) and charas were recovered from them during the raid conducted on Saturday evening.

The anti-drug agency has registered an FIR in connection with the drugs party, he said.
