Why is Rajpal Yadav in the news?
Rajpal Yadav was recently in the news for a check bounce case. He had a 5 crore loan, which even landed him in Tihar Jail for a few days. He is currently appearing in the Akshay Kumar-starrer Bhoot Bangla. Meanwhile, he has spoken about the 5 crore dispute in a podcast.

What is the truth about the 5 crore loan?
When Rajpal Yadav was asked whether the actor, who has appeared in 250 films, couldn't earn enough money to repay the 5 crore loan, he replied, "That's what no one understands: that in 2005, if I went to buy soil alone, I would have found 10 crore rupees worth of soil on which my house was built. So, what is the truth behind this loan? This is what is important to understand.

Isn't this just a loan issue?" Rajpal Yadav said, "I do make people laugh, but when it comes to family, society, and relationships, I always take it seriously. Then why has this matter been dragging on for the past 14 years? A man comes forward and says that I must have spent 5 crores in three lawsuits, so wouldn't the accused have lost 5 crores in this case?" Rajpal said, "If this was just a matter of 5 crores, it would have been settled in 2012."

What is the whole matter?

The 5 crores that sank 17 crores. What about that? At that time, my 17 crores worth of film was scuttled. The owner had already seen 70 percent of it. After that, I was left with a debt of 5 crores. 12 crores had already been spent on the film. After that, a lot of money was spent on the release.

Did the party cause a loss of 20 crores?
The total cost of making this project was 22 crores." Until this project reaches the public, no one has the right to call it zero. What was the intent behind this 5 crore rupees from 2012? What was my crime? The film was going to be released in 1,000, 1,200 theaters. But it was not allowed to be released. The case hadn't even come to court yet, and you embezzled 22 crore rupees in a press conference. Rajpal Yadav said that this whole matter is about ill-intentionedness.
