Rhea Chakraborty was interrogated by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) one more time on Sunday, in presence of her brother Showik Chakraborty, who was arrested a few days back. But, a shocking scene took place outside the NCB office. When the 27-year-old actress reached the premises, she was hounded by the crowd of media personnel present there. In the videos that have surfaced online, it is evident that Rhea was surrounded by the members of the press so closely that it was tough for her to even walk properly. Even the police struggled to escort her to safety. Bollywood celebs have called out the unprofessional way in which the media has played its role at the place of the incident.

Earlier, a lot of Bollywood celebs had supported Producers Guild's statement which called out the media for maligning the image of the industry in the wake of Sushant Singh Rajput's death case. Now, celebs like Taapsee Pannu, Swara Bhasker, Huma Qureshi, Nikhil Dwivedi and any others have called out how Rhea was mobbed by the press. National Commission of Women has also criticised how the media has behaved on Sunday.
