Now, according to a report in DNA, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has begun the investigation to look into the real truth behind the video. The agency will first find out if the video was real or was doctored by someone, later, the team will look into the matter.

Earlier, KJo has clarified that no drugs were being taken in his party, “There were achieving members of the industry who were having an easy night out after a hard week of work, having a good time. I took that video with all the earnestness… would I be putting out that video if there was anything happening at all, I am not stupid,” he said in the interview with Rajeev Masand.
