Rhea, who had to seek permission for every foreign trip earlier, expressed her excitement, saying she’s now “ready for chapter 2.”Rhea Chakraborty Flaunts Passport After NCB Returns ItSharing a picture of the passport, she wrote, "Patience was my only passport for the past 5 years. Countless battles. Endless hope. Today, I hold my passport again. Ready for my Chapter 2! Satyameva Jayate."
Shibani Dandekar, Fatima Sana Shaikh and other celebrities showed their support for Rhea in the comments section. Big Relief For Rhea Chakraborty In SSR Drug CaseRhea's passport had been held as a condition of her bail in 2020. Previously, she had to seek permission from the trial court every time she wanted to travel abroad, a process that often delayed her work commitments. Her lawyer argued that she had complied with all bail conditions, never violated court orders, and needed to travel frequently for shoots, auditions, and meetings. The NCB had opposed the request, claiming she could pose a flight risk and should not receive special treatment as a celebrity. However, Justice Neela Gokhale noted that Rhea had consistently cooperated with the trial, returned from all permitted trips, and had never breached bail terms. While her passport has now been returned, the actress is required to continue to attend all trial dates unless excused by the court and submit her travel and accommodation details at least four days in advance whenever she plans to go abroad.
