Two incredibly astonishing things happened moments after Rhea Chakraborty was arrested by Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and sent to 14 days of judicial custody.

First, a plethora of celebrities came out demanding justice for Rhea Chakraborty. It's shocking how Bollywood came out supporting someone who has voluntarily accepted into illegal drug-abuse. Second, the support by Bollywood was so strong that producer Nikhil Dwivedi has now expressed a desire to work with Rhea.

"#Rhea I didn¡¯t know u. I don't know what kind of person u r. May b u r as bad as u r being made out to b. May b u r not. What I do know is that how its all played out for u is unfair, unlawful ? how civilized countries behave. When all this is over we wud like to work with u," tweeted Nikhil Dwivedi.

A Twitter user was quick to slam the producer by asking him to stop making a hero out of someone who was using drugs.

"She has been arrested by the narcotics department for peddling drugs. Kindly don't make a hero out of her and spoil our next generation. I thought you are one sane voice from Bollywood. Thanks for dropping the mask so soon," tweeted Anagha Talwalkar.

To this, Nikhil Dwivedi replied saying, "Have the courts convicted her? In case they do, we shall wait for her to do time and reform. In case she doesn't reform then I shall take my words back. But the media & public needs to stop passing judgment. My support is for #Innocentuntilprovenguilty & not for #RheaChakraborty.¡±

After tweeting his opinion, Nikhil Dwivedi was subjected to immense trolling and hateful messages. He even had a reply for them stating how he really doesn't care what people think.

"To those who think I am supporting a drug user or drug peddler &trolling me. I wud like to say I DON¡¯T CARE! I m NOT supporting #Rhea but standing up to our tendency to pronounce judgments before the law has. I was as disturbed when men were ousted of their jobs on #Metoo allegations," tweeted Nikhil Dwivedi.

The audiences have made it clear that if Rhea Chakraborty comes in any films or shows, they will not be tuning in to watch. Rest Bollywood is free to do whatever.
