Orhan Awatramani, better known as Orry, appeared at Mumbai’s Crime Branch for 7.5 hours long interrogation against ₹252-Crore Drugs Case
The glittering world of social media ran into the harsh lights of law enforcement this week when influencer Orhan Awatramani, better known as Orry, appeared before the ANC of Mumbai’s Crime Branch. This young celebrity, loved for his high-profile friendships and omnipresence in Bollywood circles, was summoned in connection with the ongoing ₹252-crore drugs case that has stirred conversations nationwide.
Orry reached the ANC’s Ghatkopar unit around early afternoon and entered the building at around 1:30 PM. By the time he walked out around 9:00 PM, nearly 7.5 hours of questioning had been completed, which hints at the seriousness with which the investigators are going about it.
A Silent Witness or a Man With Nothing to Hide?
NewsBytes quoted the police sources as saying Orry did not provide any significant leads during interrogation, which, although long, seemed to have been characterized by brief replies and a categorical denial of charges.
He was allegedly questioned by investigators regarding his connection to Salim Sohail Shaikh, one of the key names involved with the case. Orry, however, firmly denied knowing Shaikh or even being associated with him. His repeated insistence that he neither consumes nor associates with drugs forms the backbone of his defense.
He reportedly insisted, “I do not know him. I have nothing to do with drugs.”
Bollywood Parties Under Scrutiny — Orry Pushes Back
Given Orry’s image as the ever-present partygoer in Bollywood’s social circles, a few questions do crop up on what goes behind the velvet ropes of celebrity parties. His answer was candid: yes, he does go to parties, but no, he has never seen drugs being consumed nor partaken of drugs himself.
He referred to his appearances at such venues as, for the most part, social engagements/photo ops, networking, and rubbing shoulders. The scenario described by Orry of party scenes was much less spectacular than one may have envisioned; he firmly views glamour as not equating to crime.
What the Interrogation Means for the Investigation
The questioning of Orry by the ANC signals that investigators are following every lead-personal, financial, and social-related to the sprawling ₹252-crore drug network. Cases involving big names and such magnitude often bring high-profile individuals under the scanner, especially when their circles overlap with those already implicated or under suspicion.
Where Orry’s statements had been short and guarded, his cooperation in appearing before the authorities shows acceptance of the legal process. As the investigation unfolds, it should become clearer whether questioning will open new leads or simply mark a procedural step.
Public Spotlight and the Pressure of Fame
The story only shows how difficult life is for those under the spotlights. Every action is magnified and every accusation turned into a screaming headline when millions are watching. For Orry, whose claim to fame is online popularity and connections with Bollywood elites, such scrutiny can shake even the most curated public image.
Yet, his steady denials and readiness to be interrogated show determination to defend his reputation.
As the Orry interrogation gains the interest of the nation, the case is still developing. The influencer’s appearance added another layer of intrigue in what has already been an intricate investigation; with the ANC digging deeper and more names surfacing, the coming days may determine whether Orry walks away unscathed or remains entangled in the probe’s expanding web.
