Rana Daggubati skips ED questioning in betting apps case

Entertainment

Actor Rana Daggubati has been asked to show up before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for questioning about illegal betting apps.
He was originally supposed to appear on July 23 but got it pushed back.

Case involves 29 actors, influencers, and YouTubers

The ED is digging into a big case involving 29 actors, influencers, and YouTubers who allegedly promoted betting platforms like Junglee Rummy, JeetWin, and Lotus365.
The probe started after several FIRs in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, with officials saying these celebrity endorsements may have fueled illegal gambling and money laundering.

Other summoned celebrities

It's not just Daggubati—Prakash Raj, Vijay Deverakonda, and Lakshmi Manchu have also been summoned for questioning.
They're accused of promoting these apps without checking if they were legal.
Each will give their statements to the agency in the coming weeks.
