After being rejected several times, Rhea Chakraborty has finally been granted bail by the Bombay High Court after close to a month-long stay in jail following her arrest by the Narcotics Control Bureau for alleged involvement with the drug cartel, in the Sushant Singh Rajput death case.

While the actress' bail plea was accepted with a Rs 1 lakh bond, the court rejected her brother, Showik Chakraborty's plea. "We are delighted by the order. Truth and justice have prevailed and ultimately the submissions on facts and law have been accepted by Justice Sarang V Kotwal," said Rhea Chakraborty's lawyer Satish Maneshinde.

“The arrest and custody of Rhea were totally unwarranted and beyond the reach of the law. The hounding and witch-hunt by three central agencies, the CBI, Enforcement Directorate, and the Narcotics Control Bureau should come to an end. We remain committed to truth. Satyameva Jayate," Maneshinde added.

Now that Rhea has been granted bail, people stand divided:

I have no longer trust on police and law! Criminals,rapists and druggists are protected in this country. Sad but true!#302ForSSRDishaKillers #RheaChakraborthy

Now let's see if #ArnabGoswami and the police investigate the issue behind fake accounts created to push agenda against #RheaChakraborthy and taking advantage of #SushantSinghRajput's death. I guess we will never know 🧐 pic.twitter.com/01VSzP2fRP

Some celebs have spoken in favour of Rhea getting the bail.

Hope her time in jail has sufficed the egos of a lot of people out there who in the name of justice for Sushant fulfilled their personal/professional agendas.Praying she doesn’t become bitter towards the life she has ahead of her.

Finally!!! She gets bail. #RHEACHAKRABORTY

#RheaChakraborty finally gets bail after a month. She has been the subject of utmost misogynistic vilification, led by some of our major TV news channels ( some of whom tried and trying to change track midway).

Any shrill anchors apologising for the hell they put #RheaChakraborty and her family through? Didn’t think so. But watch them shift the goalpost now .. they’re notorious for that. https://t.co/4VGkKNn1GR
