How the loan case brought Rajpal into trouble
Rajpal Yadav’s case started many years ago. In 2010, he took a loan of Rs 5 crore from a company in Delhi. He took the money to make his directorial film ‘Ata Pata Laapata’. The movie did not do well. Because of this, Rajpal could not repay the loan fully. He and his wife gave cheques. These cheques bounced. After this, the lender went to court. Over the years, the amount kept increasing. Reports say that the loan now stands near Rs 9 crore. Rajpal made some payments but could not clear the full amount. The court finally ordered him to surrender and he obeyed the order and went to Tihar Jail.See More: Rajpal Yadav makes an emotional statement before surrendering himself in Tihar jail in cheque bounce case: ‘Mere paas paise nai hai’
Rajpal Yadav’s emotional words in court
Before he surrendered, Rajpal made a very emotional statement in court. He said, “Sir, what should I do? I don’t have any money. I don’t see any other solution.” The court then asked him if he had asked friends in the industry for help. Rajpal replied, “Sir, yahan hum sab akele hain. There are no friends. I have to deal with this crisis on my own.”Rajpal still has movies waitingfor him once he is out. He has films like Bhooth Bangla and Welcome to the Jungle lined up. Rajpal was last seen in ‘Baby John’.
