Actor Dia Mirza has "strongly and categorically" refuted allegations that she has ever purchased or consumed narcotic or contraband substances. In a set of three firmly-worded tweets posted Tuesday evening, Ms Mirza criticised "frivolous" reportage that was damaging her career.
"I have never procured or consumed any narcotic or contraband substance of any form in my life. Such frivolous reporting has a direct impact on my reputation being besmirched and is causing damage to my career, which I have painstakingly built with years of hard work," the actor tweeted.
3) I have never procured or consumed any narcotic or contraband substances of any form in my life. I intend to pursue the full extent of legal remedies available to me as a law abiding citizen of India. Thanks to my supporters for standing by me.
