All about Rajpal Yadav cheque-bounce case

Yadav was ordered by the Delhi High Court to serve a six-month prison term in a decade-old cheque-bounce case. The 54-year-old actor had reported Rs 5 crore from a Delhi-based businessman in 2010 to invest in his directorial debut, Ata Pata Laapata.

According to his lawyer, Yadav decided to surrender before the Tihar Jail authorities last week after repeated attempts to arrange the repayment over the years failed.

Industry coming forward to help

The manager also said that a large section of the film industry has come ahead to support the actor financially. He named actors such as Salman Khan and Ajay Devgn, and added that filmmaker David Dhawan informed him that his son, actor Varun Dhawan, would also extend support. He urged people not to malign the industry’s image.

“The whole industry is coming forward to help him at this time. Sonu Sood has publicly supported him. Actors like Salman Khan and Ajay Devgn have taken the initiative, and even David Dhawan has told me that Varun will help him. I don’t want to name only a few members and inadvertently belittle the rest of the industry,” he said.

Goldie added that the Federation of Western India Cine Workers (FWICE) had issued a letter earlier in the day urging members to extend support. “To be honest, many people have been forthcoming, and we are optimistic that we will sail through this situation. Rajpal ji is a strong man, and he has shown absolute grit during this time,” he said.

Rajpal Yadav has been going through a difficult time amid legal and financial struggles. The actor has surrendered himself to Tihar jail in a check bounce case of Rs 9 crore. Before surrendering to the authorities, Yadav made an emotional statement and had said, “Sir, what should I do? I don’t have any money. I can’t see any solution… Sir, we are all alone here. There are no friends. I have to deal with this crisis on my own.”

After Yadav surrendered to the authorities, now several big names from Bollywood have come out to support the actor in clearing his debt of Rs. The actor’s manager revealed how actors like Ajay Devgn, Salman Khan, Varun Dhawan among others have helped him. The actor’s manager Goldie, told Screen, “A lot of people have reached out to help Rajpal Yadav. Actors like Sonu Sood, Salman Khan, and Ajay Devgn have extended their support. I was just on a call with David Dhawan, he also reached out. Ratan Nain, Varun Dhawan… many people are coming forward to help him this time, which Rajpal has deeply appreciated.”

After popular Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav surrendered at Tihar Jail in connection with the Rs 9 crore check bounce case, several celebrities came out in support of him. Following Sonu Sood and Rao Inderjeet Singh, actors Salman Khan and Ajay Devgn, amongst others, also offered to help him during this difficult time.

For those unaware, Rajpal Yadav was sent to Tihar Jail after the Delhi High Court rejected his plea seeking additional time to repay outstanding dues amounting to almost Rs 9 crore.

Major update on Rajpal Yadav’s case

During a recent chat with Screen, actor’s manager Goldie shared that a lot of people have reached out to help the Bhool Bhulaiyaa actor. From Salman Khan to Ajay Devgn to Varun Dhawan, most of the A-listers came out in and extended their support during such difficult times.

On being asked whether Rajpal Yadav asked for help before surrendering at Tihar, Goldie stated that he won’t comment on that. He quipped, “The good thing is that after his situation deteriorated, the industry has stood behind him like a rock, and that should be appreciated. Everyone has made commitments, but such transactions don’t happen overnight.”

Going ahead, Rajpal’s manager also expressed hope that he would be released soon. Goldie said that the hearing is tomorrow (February 12) and the bail application has already been lodged. They will be able to provide additional information following the hearing tomorrow.

Comedy actor Rajpal Yadav surrendered at Tihar Jail on February 5 after the Delhi High Court rejected his last-minute plea in a decade-old check bounce and loan default case.

The case, which dates back to 2010, revolves around unpaid dues that reportedly escalated to almost Rs 9 crore following the failure of his production venture Ata Pata Laapata.

An entertainment portal quoted Rajpal Yadav as saying he didn’t find any way out before surrendering. He reportedly added that he had not received any support from colleagues, saying, “Everyone is on their own” in the industry.

Meanwhile, NDTV spoke to Rajpal‘s elder brother Sripal Yadav and asked him about the truthfulness of his brother’s circulated words.

“I feel this information is not correct. He is my younger brother; we stayed in one room and grew up together. I don’t believe he can say these words. Even if he is in trouble, he won’t plead to anyone,” Sripal Yadav told NDTV.

Asked about his last conversation with Rajpal before he went to jail, Sripal said Rajpal had assured him that he would be back soon.

He called me and said, ‘Don’t worry about anything. “I have to go to court for a day, and some legal procedures will be followed,” Sripal Yadav told us.

Assering that his brother had invested money in a film, Sripal Yadav said, “Rajpal assured me that he will prove the fact that he didn’t take any loans. He invested the money in a film. He signed a few papers regarding the investment. When the film failed, investments were demanded from him by showing those signatures.”

Sripal Yadav’s daughter is getting married, and the family is optimistic that Rajpal will be with them for the occasion.

The Case

According to PTI, the legal trouble started in 2010 when Rajpal Yadav borrowed Rs 5 crore from M/s Murali Projects Pvt Ltd to finance his directorial debut, Ata Pata Lapata. The film failed at the box office, leading to major financial losses.

Over time, interest, penalties, and delayed payments caused the outstanding amount to rise to almost Rs 9 crore.

To settled the dues, Rajpal Yadav issued multiple checks to the lender. However, these checks were dishonoured, triggering criminal proceedings under the Negotiable Documents Act.
