Jagan's family sent him lunch from home today and on Saturday, they might have to keep tiffin ready again.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Friday grilled the YSR Congress Party leader for over seven hours in the illegal assets case and is set to continue questioning him on Saturday, amid speculation that he could be arrested.
Emerging from Dilkusha Guest House, the CBI camp office here, at 6.30 p.m, Jagan told reporters that he had been asked to come again on Saturday at 10.30 a.m.
"Clarifications have been sought and clarifications have been given. Tomorrow in continuation to the clarifications sought, they ask me to come again at 10.30 a.m. I will be seeing them once again at 10.30 a.m. tomorrow. They will be asking me further clarifications and I will be giving them further clarifications," he said without elaborating further.
"It was very cool and peaceful," he remarked to queries about the questioning. He later drove to his residence at Lotus Pond, where a large number of his supporters greeted him.
CBI officials led by joint director V.V. Lakshminarayana began questioning Jagan at 10.30 a.m. at Dilkusha Guest House.

The CBI believed to have questioned him in the presence of Excise Minister Mopidevi Venkataramana, who was arrested on Thursday for his role in issuing orders as minister for infrastructure and investment in the YSR cabinet, leading industrialist Nimmagadda Prasad and bureaucrat K.V. Brahmananda Reddy. All the three are currently in CBI custody.
Jagan was seen entering the guest house at 10.30 a.m with a smile on his face and greeting the officials with folded hands. The 40-year-old businessman-politician was accompanied by Congress MP Sabbam Hari, state legislators Alla Nani and Bhuma Nagi Reddy.
The usually busy Raj Bhavan Road, where the guest house is located, had been blocked by police. A few Jagan supporters who managed to reach near the guest house and raised slogans were arrested.
Hyderabad is virtually under police siege with deployment of forces at several places to avert any law and order problem in the event of Jagan's arrest. Prohibitory orders banning assembly of five or more people have been imposed in the city and other parts of the state.
