Kajal Aggarwal shocked by manager's arrest
Actress Kajal Aggarwal on Tuesday said she is appalled after hearing about her manager Puttkar Ronson Josephs arrest in connection with a drug racket.
Actress Kajal Aggarwal on Tuesday said she is appalled after hearing about her manager Puttkar Ronson Josephs arrest in connection with a drug racket.
"I am absolutely shocked and appalled about this whole incident with Ronnie. I'm in zero support of this and any behaviour that is detrimental to the hygiene of our society," Kajal tweeted on Tuesday.
"Having said that, just because I care for people who run errands for me does not imply that I can control their personal lives/choices.
"My parents have always managed my career and with everyone else from my industry, I share an extremely professional/cordial relationship. I am unaware of their whereabouts and activities once their professional duties with regards to me are completed," she added.
Puttkar was arrested on Monday from his house in Manikonda here. Narcotic substances were recovered from his possession.
