Actor Ananya Panday, who was questioned for the second day by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in the drugs-on-cruise case, has denied using drugs or helping Aryan Khan source them.

The 22-year-old actor was summoned by the probe agency, reportedly, on the basis of two-year-old WhatsApp chats found on the phone of Aryan Khan.

Ananya Panday was reportedly questioned by NCB officer Sameer Wankhede, who is leading the investigation.

ANI citing NCB sources said Aryan's chats appeared to indicate that Ananya helped him procure weed, by providing him the numbers of drug dealers. The NCB further said Ananya's answers were not satisfactory, so her questioning will be continued on Monday.

Ananya Panday's home in Mumbai's Bandra was raided by the anti-drugs agency on Thursday, and her laptop and mobile phones were seized.
