Social media influencer and prominent Bollywood socialite Orhan Awatramani, widely recognized as Orry, found himself at the center of a major narcotics investigation. He appeared before the Anti-Narcotics Cell (ANC) for questioning in connection with a sprawling Rs 252-crore mephedrone (MD drug) case that has sent shockwaves through the city.
The Sangli Drug Seizure and Orry's Alleged Links
The case stems from a significant police operation earlier in 2024, where authorities uncovered a clandestine factory in Sangli and seized a staggering 126 kg of mephedrone. During the subsequent investigation, a key accused trafficker, identified as Mohammad Salim Mohammad Suhail Shaikh (who also goes by the alias "Lavish"), made statements that brought Orry into the probe's purview.
According to law enforcement officials, Shaikh's claims suggest that Orry was present at several high-profile parties that are now under the scanner. These gatherings are allegedly drug-fuelled rave parties connected to the large-scale drug distribution network being investigated by the ANC.
A High-Profile Appearance and Public Scrutiny
On November 26, 2025, Orry arrived at the ANC's Ghatkopar unit to formally record his statement. His appearance was anything but low-key, drawing massive crowds of onlookers and a frenzy of paparazzi, highlighting his celebrity status.
It is crucial to note that, as of now, Orry has only been summoned for questioning. The ANC has emphasized that no formal charges have been filed against him. His role is currently that of a witness or a person of interest who may have information relevant to the case.
The Socialite's Persona and the Investigation's Shadow
Orry has meticulously built a public persona as the BFF of Bollywood stars and star kids, constantly seen at major events and exclusive parties. This very network and lifestyle are now under a microscope. The investigation seeks to determine the nature of his presence at these alleged parties and whether he had any involvement or knowledge of the illicit activities taking place.
The case continues to develop as authorities piece together the vast drug network. Orry's questioning marks a significant moment, pulling a well-known figure from the glamorous world of Bollywood social circles into a serious legal probe.
