Sandalwood drug scandal: Meghana Raj demands apology from Indrajith Lankesh

Bengaluru: Meghana Raj Actress and wife of late actor Chiranjeevi Sarja, has sought an apology from filmmaker Indrajit Lankesh for including Chiranjeevi Sarja’s name in the Sandalwood drug scandal that has rocked the industry over the past few days.

N M Suresh, the working president of KFCC, has confirmed that Meghana Raj is deeply disturbed because of the disrepute being brought to Chiranjeevi Sarja’s name, by Indrajit Lankesh. “Meghana Raj has penned a letter to KFCC, stating that the developments over the last few days have caused a lot of pain. She has demanded an apology from Indrajit Lankesh,” he said.In response to Meghana’s letter, Indrajit took to a TV channel to say, “I have already withdrawn my statements made against Chiranjeevi Sarja.

I have not said that Chiranjeevi was involved in a drug racket. I said a post mortem should have been done in Chiranjeevi’s case to ascertain the cause of death, as Chiranjeevi’s father was not aware about the real cause of his son’s death. Having said that, if I have hurt Meghana Raj or any of their family members, I am ready to apologise on any public platform.”

Earlier this week, Indrajith Lankesh had volunteered to provide information about the drug abuse in Sandalwood. He met investigation officers twice to share evidence which has now sent shockwaves across the industry, and led to the arrest of actress Ragini Dwivedi.
