The Bombay High Court quashed charges against the former Bollywood actress, citing insufficient evidence in the high-profile drug trafficking case.

Mamta Kulkarni, a prominent Bollywood actress of the 1990s, has returned to India after 25 years away from the country.
Kulkarni was accused in a ₹2,000 crore drug trafficking case linked to the misuse of ephedrine by Avon Lifesciences Limited in 2016.
The Bombay High Court recently dismissed the case against her, stating that the evidence presented was insufficient to support the allegations.
Kulkarni denied all wrongdoing over the years, claiming she was being scapegoated, and expressed relief at being cleared of the charges.
Despite speculation from fans, Kulkarni has confirmed she has no plans to return to Bollywood and is content with her current life.
