Since the Mumbai Sessions Courts are closed on Oct 9 (Second Saturday) and Oct 10 (Sunday), Khan's bail applications could only be filed on Monday, it was reported.

However, as per a report on livelaw.in, Khan has approached the Session Court for bail and the matter is likely to be heard next week. ?

How long will the Aryan Khan's bail-hearing procedure take?

After Khan files a bail application in the sessions court, the NCB will be notified and asked to submit its views and findings. Since, NCB opposed his bail application earlier as well, it is likely that this time as well, the agency will argue that Khan belongs to an influential family and could tamper with evidence and witnesses. The Sessions Court will announce its order on after detailed argument.?

While initially eight people were detained in the case after small quantities of cocaine, MDMA (ecstasy), charas and Rs 1,33,000 cash were siezed, so far the NCB has arrested 18 people now that reportedly include 10 guests, four event organisers, two alleged suppliers and one consumer.
