Rajpal Yadav Surrenders to Tihar; Bail Denied, Celebs Rally
Rajpal Yadav surrendered to Tihar Jail in a ₹9 crore cheque-bounce case; bail denied, with celebrities pledging support ahead of the next hearing.
Actor Rajpal Yadav surrendered to Tihar Jail in a cheque-bounce case involving debts close to ₹9 crore. The court rejected his bail plea, stating that a family wedding cannot override the due process of law, and the matter is now slated for a fresh hearing on February 16.
His wife, Radha Yadav, said the film industry has rallied behind him, with prominent names like Sonu Sood, Salman Khan, Guru Randhawa, and Mika Singh reaching out to offer both financial and moral support. The move reflects a growing trend where celebrities step forward when peers face legal and financial troubles.
Before surrendering, Yadav spoke about the financial crunch he was facing and said he had no one to turn to for help, a confession that has been echoed by supporters who are trying to mobilize resources. In the meantime, Mika Singh pledged ₹11 lakh to assist the actor as he navigates the legal process, while others in the industry have pledged help as well.
The case adds another chapter to the ongoing conversation about accountability and support within Bollywood, with the next hearing on February 16 likely to attract additional attention from fans and commentators alike.
