Rajpal Yadav's wife Radha Yadav breaks silence on his debt case, receiving help from the industry: 'Everyone has stood by him'

A day after actor-comedian Rajpal Yadav surrendered to Tihar Jail in connection with multiple cheque-bounce cases, his wife Radha Yadav revealed that the film fraternity has rallied behind him. His wife has finally spoken up on the matter. Yadav had made an emotional statement before surrendering himself to the authorities and confessed he doesn't have any money and is all alone in this battle. Post that, several celebs have come forward and offered support to him. After Sonu Soon, Guru Randhawa pledged to help him, Mika Singh has now offered help of Rs 11 lakh to the actor.

Rajpal Yadav's wife Radha expressed gratitude to those extending support during this difficult period. When asked about the response from the industry, Radha said in an interview with PTI, "Everybody has stood by him. The industry has been supportive, a big thank you to everyone who is coming out to help." Several members of the industry and even the TV industry, like Gurmeet Chaudhary and music composer Rao Inderjit Yadav, have publicly offered financial help and encouraged others to contribute as well.




Rajpal was taken into custody after the Delhi High Court dismissed his plea seeking additional time to clear dues in a long-pending cheque-bounce matter. The total outstanding amount stands at nearly Rs 9 crore.

In its recent order, the Delhi High Court observed that Rajpal was required to deposit ₹1.35 crore in each of the seven cases filed against him. The court also directed that the amount already deposited with the registrar general be released to the complainant.

The financial trouble dates back to 2010, when the actor borrowed Rs 5 crore from M/S Murali Projects Pvt Ltd to fund his directorial debut Ata Pata Laapata. The film’s poor box-office performance reportedly worsened his financial situation.

"People have taken the initiative to help. They all have promised to help, it doesn't mean financially only. It's true that Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn, Varun and David Dhawan these people have called. In what capacity and how they will help, that is yet to be known. They are all well-wishers of Rajpal bhai," he said as quoted by PTI.

Among the first to extend support was actor Sonu Sood, who reportedly signed Rajpal for a film and offered the signing amount in advance as immediate assistance.
