Telugu actress Mehreen Pirzada had gone to Canada for a Telugu shooting and after finishing her work travelled to the US to visit her family members living there. She was questioned by the US authorities for thirty minutes regarding a sex racket and only when they were sure she was not involved they let her go.

The US authorities recently arrested producer Kishan and his wife Chandra living in the US who ran a sex racket in which Telugu actresses were offered to clients. Mehreen has stated that since she was travelling a lot she did not hear about the issue. Apart from many Telugu films in Tamil she has acted in Suseenthiran's 'Nenjil Thunivirunthaal' and the upcoming 'NOTA' starring Vijay Deverakonda and directed by Anand Shankar.
