Rakul Preet Singh lands in trouble for carrying a bullet

Venkatadri Express actress Rakul Preet Singh was restrained by CISF at Delhi airport after she was caught red-handed while carrying a bullet in her laptop bag. She was interrogated for over four hours.

As Rakul was undergoing a routine security-check before boarding a flight to Mumbai, she came to know that some metallic object has been detected inside her bag. The officials checked her bag thoroughly and then the suspicious object came out to be an imported 8mm bullet. Rakul narrated the incident saying, "I started panicking, sweating and crying.” She added further, "My dad is in the army, so I called him and asked if the bullet was his, since he has a licensed arm. But he told me that in India we don't make arms like that. The CISF guys started using legal jargon and mentioning terms like international crime, etc. My father came down, but there was so much confusion. First the cops couldn't figure out if the bullet was live or dead.When they finally figured that it was dead, there was the question of how I came to possess it. I was so panicky that I had completely blocked out my window of thought. I had come back from Bangkok two days ago and since they said that the bullet is not made in India, I started wondering if someone had slipped it into my bag.” Later the cops found out that it was a dead as well as a fake bullet. The actress said further, "It's when I started really jogging my brain that I remembered that the bullet was from one of my shoots. In one of my Tamil films, I had used a revolver and it was a toy bullet from that. I had taken it as a keepsake and it had been in my bag for over eight months. But I was so shaken by then that I didn't know how to react. The bullet was all plastic inside. After that the cops let me go and told me to send them a DVD of the film in which I had used it.” "Thankfully the nightmare ended and I boarded a flight to Mumbai soon," she happily signed off.
