Delhi High Court on September 17 sought the centre's response on actor Rakul Preet Singh's petition to stop media reports linking her with the Rhea Chakraborty drug case. The actor, in her petition, had claimed media reports were connecting her to the case despite Chakraborty retracting from the statement in which she had allegedly named her. Media reports are being run in contravention to the Information and Broadcasting Ministry's guidelines, the 29-year-old actor - represented by advocate Aman Hingorani - had claimed in her petition.
