On the intervening night of Tuesday and Wednesday, the Cyberabad police booked the singer after ganja and foreign liquor were allegedly recovered during a police raid on her birthday party at a resort near Hyderabad.

Officials conducted a raid on a tip-off at the Erlapally resort on the outskirts of Chevella in Rangareddy district early on Wednesday.

During the raid conducted at the Tripura Resort around 2 a.m., a man was caught consuming ganja at the venue.

A case was registered against the singer and the resort management under the Cyberabad Police Commissionerate.

They are looking into alleged violations, including drug use, absence of official permissions, and illegal use of sound systems.

The police also booked the General Manager of the Tripura Resort for allowing the event to take place without the necessary approvals.

The police also seized DJ equipment that was being used without a sound permission license.

The police conducted a drug test on 48 of those present at the party. It is not yet known how many attended the bash and tested positive.

Some celebrities were among those who attended the star-studded party.

They will likely be issued notices by the police.

Police have been keeping a close watch on resorts and parties as part of their efforts to crackdown on drugs.

Several authorities, including the Hyderabad Narcotics Enforcement Wing (H-NEW), and Telangana Anti-Narcotics Bureau (TGNAB), are taking steps to deal firmly with drug trafficking and consumption at parties.

This is not the first time that a celebrity drug raid has made headlines in India. In April, authorities conducted a raid at the residence of Rhea Chakraborty, the actor implicated in the drugs angle surrounding the death of her boyfriend, Sushant Singh Rajput. Officials say they found evidence of drug use at the Mumbai home.

Last year, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was briefly detained by the Narcotics Control Bureau after officials said they seized banned drugs from a cruise ship off the coast of Mumbai. One of the largest celebrities in India, Khan denied any wrongdoing and said he had been on the ship to promote his film.

And in another high-profile case, drug raids were conducted at the homes of prominent actors and producers, including Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, after Hollywood star Johnny Depp accused his ex-wife, Amber Heard, of leaving drugs around their house.
