Bollywood actor Vijay Raaz -- who has worked in films like Monsoon Wedding -- has been arrested in Dubai for possessing drugs (charas), reports said on Tuesday.

According to the reports, the actor was arrested two days ago.

Raaz is shooting in Dubai for Vikram Bhatt's film Deewane Hue Pagal.

When rediff.com contacted Bhatt in Dubai, he said, "I have heard about this incident but I cannot confirm it. I am not even sure whether he is arrested or not."

He added that Raaz was supposed to join the crew a couple of days back, but did not.
