Rajpal Yadav breaks silence on Priyadarshan remark, clears air on Sonu Sood’s support Actor Rajpal Yadav has firmly responded to filmmaker Priyadarshan after the latter’s comment linking Yadav’s legal troubles to “poor education” triggered debate. The remark came amid renewed attention on a long-running cheque-bounce case involving the actor. Reacting to the statement, Rajpal said, “This is completely wrong. Priyanji doesn’t know me. I am a well-educated guy, I have been working since the age of 11 to 55. ” Emphasising that setbacks are not tied to academic background, he added, “Even the biggest of stalwarts land in trouble at some point, but that has nothing to do with their education. Had I been poorly educated, I wouldn’t have survived here for 25–30 years. ”While disagreeing with the remark, Rajpal reiterated his respect for the filmmaker. “I respect three directors a lot; Mr Ram Gopal Verma, David Dhawan and Priyadarshan. I look up to them. I have done more than 50 films with just the three of them. ” He further said, “I am like Priyanji’s son. But Priyanji or anyone from Bollywood doesn’t know the whole story, so any judgments from them don’t hold value. ”The actor also responded to support extended by Sonu Sood, who had publicly offered to stand by him and even announced that he would cast Rajpal in a film. Addressing the gesture, Rajpal urged people to change their perception about his situation. “Please get over the misconception that I need to keep asking... #Yadav #Rajpal_Yadav #Rajpal #Sonu_Sood #Yadav_breaks #linking_Yadav #triggered_debate #clears_air #breaks_silence #comment_linking

Rajpal Yadav to address Rs 9 crores cheque bounce case in press conference after being granted bail After being granted bail in the Rs 9 crore cheque bounce case linked to his 2010 production venture, actor Rajpal Yadav has announced that he will soon hold a press conference to address the controversy in detail. While speaking to PTI, the actor maintained that the matter is currently before the High Court and refrained from discussing legal specifics, emphasising his respect for the judicial process. “All legal matters are before the High Court. As the case is sub judice, I do not wish to comment and I fully respect the court's decisions. Within the next few days, we will hold a press conference and answer all questions honestly,” Yadav told PTI, thanking the media and his supporters across the country and the film industry. The case originates from a financial dispute connected to his directorial venture Ata Pata Laapata, for which funds were reportedly borrowed in 2010. Over time, the matter escalated into cheque bounce proceedings, with the outstanding amount allegedly increasing due to accumulated interest and penalties. Earlier this month, the High Court had taken note of delays in settlement, following which Yadav surrendered and was briefly sent back to jail. After subsequent hearings, he was granted bail. During his interaction with the media last evening, Yadav directed legal queries to his counsel, Bhaskar Upadhyay, and reflected on his three-decade journey in... #High_Court #Yadav #Court #press_conference #Rajpal_Yadav #Rajpal #actor_Rajpal #cheque_bounce #High #crores_cheque

Rajpal Yadav gets temporary relief: Delhi High Court grants bail in Rs. 9 crores cheque bounce case to attend family wedding Veteran Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav has received temporary relief from the Delhi High Court in the long-running Rs. 9 crores cheque bounce case that has resurfaced dramatically in February 2026. The court has suspended his sentence, granting him bail to attend a family wedding on February 19, even as legal proceedings against him continue. Recent reports suggest that the actor is supposed to attend his niece’s wedding due to which the court reached this decision. While the latest bail order offers temporary relief, it does not amount to a final acquittal. The actor has been directed to remain present—physically or virtually—at the next major hearing scheduled for March 18, 2026. The case traces its origins back to 2010, when Yadav borrowed Rs. 5 crores from Murali Projects Pvt Ltd, a Delhi-based company, to finance his directorial debut, Ata Pata Laapata. Released in 2012, the film failed to perform at the box office, leaving the actor unable to repay the loan. The financial dispute soon escalated into multiple cheque-bounce cases. Over the years, accumulated interest and penalties reportedly pushed the total outstanding amount to nearly Rs. 9 crores. In 2018, Yadav was sentenced to six months in prison and served three months in Tihar Jail before being released on bail pending appeal. However, the matter regained urgency this month after the... #Delhi #High_Court #Delhi_High #Yadav #Court #Rajpal_Yadav #Veteran_Bollywood #High #Court_grants #temporary_relief

In a recent interaction with Bombay Times, Radha addressed growing speculation that the actor had been released. The rumours intensified after an old video resurfaced online showing Rajpal thanking Salman Khan, leading some to assume he had secured relief.

Rajpal Yadav has paid Rs. 2.5 crore in Rs. 9-crore cheque bounce case, reveals lawyer Actor Rajpal Yadav has paid Rs. 2. 5 crore in connection with the long-running Rs. 9-crore cheque bounce case against him, revealed his lawyer Bhaskar Upadhyay on Friday. The development comes a day after the Delhi High Court sent the actor to judicial custody at least until Monday, after adjourning the hearing on his interim bail plea. Speaking to NDTV, Upadhyay said, “The money that was invested from the investment purpose has not been denied to. Earlier also when there was talk of money, the company had refused to take money. Negotiations are underway on the 2012 agreement, in which three months have already been served”. "I can't say anything about who gave money to Rajpal Yadav, it is a family matter. I will personally go to the jail and tell him how it needs to be done. Out of Rs 5 crore so far, Rs 2. 5 crore have been given. Let's see what the court decides on Monday," he added. As things stand, Rajpal Yadav is serving a six-month jail sentence after the high court rejected his last-minute plea for relief in the case. The actor surrendered at Tihar Jail on February 5. The case dates back to 2010, when Yadav borrowed money for his directorial debut, Ata Pata Laapata. The film failed to perform at the box office, and the loan amount eventually ballooned into a significant financial liability. Over the years, multiple cheque bounce complaints were filed against him. On Februa... #High_Court #crore #Yadav #money #Rajpal_Yadav #Rajpal #case #cheque_bounce #Actor_Rajpal #bounce_case

During the hearing, counsel appearing for Rajpal Yadav informed the court that a formal bail application had been moved on the actor’s behalf and requested that the opposing party be asked to submit its reply. The lawyer also told the bench that he had been unable to establish contact with Yadav and sought additional time until Monday, assuring the court that he would “work out something. ” He further requested a brief adjournment in the matter.

Rajpal Yadav to surrender at Tihar Jail after Delhi HC rejects extension in cheque bounce case The Delhi High Court on Thursday dismissed Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav’s last attempt to postpone his surrender in a long-running cheque bounce case, prompting the actor to say he will report to jail authorities later in the day to begin serving his sentence. Yadav, who was present in court, had sought additional time to address the outstanding payments owed to the complainant, Murli Projects Private Limited, but the bench, led by Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma, refused to grant any further extensions. The court said it would hear him only after he surrendered to the jail authorities, noting that Yadav had previously been directed to surrender on Wednesday but failed to do so. Senior advocate Abhijat, appearing for Yadav, informed the court that a payment of Rs 25 lakhs would be made on the same day and that a tentative repayment schedule had been agreed between the parties. However, the bench declined to consider the plea, emphasising that previous leniency had already been extended and that Yadav had not fulfilled assurances given to the court. The actor’s sentence stems from a May 2024 conviction in a cheque bounce case, in which a sessions court sentenced him to six months’ imprisonment; the High Court later suspended the sentence on an assurance that Yadav would pursue a settlement with the complainant. That arrangement ultimately failed, with Yadav missing various deadlines ... #Delhi #High_Court #Delhi_High #Yadav #Tihar_Jail #Rajpal_Yadav #Thursday_dismissed #dismissed_Bollywood #Bollywood_actor #actor_Rajpal
