Rajpal Yadav’s Wife Radha Thanks Bollywood as Industry Stands With Actor Amid Cheque-Bounce Crisis
SRINAGAR: Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav’s wife, Radha Yadav, has expressed heartfelt gratitude after several leading figures from the Hindi film industry rallied in support of the actor following his surrender in a long-pending cheque-bounce case, according to reported statements.
Radha said on Wednesday that “everybody has stood by him” and thanked the film fraternity for the support they have received during this difficult period. She described the industry’s response as “supportive” and expressed appreciation for those coming forward to help the family.
Rajpal Yadav, known for his memorable roles in Bollywood comedies and films like Phir Hera Pheri, Hungama, Bhool Bhulaiyaa and Chup Chup Ke, surrendered to the authorities at Delhi’s Tihar Jail after the Delhi High Court rejected his plea for more time to settle outstanding dues in multiple cheque-bounce cases. He is reportedly required to pay around ₹9 crore as part of the legal proceedings.
Bollywood Celebrities Step In to Support
In the wake of his surrender, several prominent Bollywood celebrities and industry professionals have extended financial help and moral support to Rajpal Yadav and his family:
- Sonu Sood reportedly pledged to sign Rajpal for an upcoming project and provide him with a signing amount in advance.
- Actors Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn, Varun Dhawan, and filmmaker David Dhawan are among those who have reached out with offers of assistance, according to industry sources.
- Radha’s long-time manager, Goldie Jain, confirmed that a wide range of actors, directors, and producers have offered their help, both financially and as well-wishers.
Radha highlighted that the support is not only financial but also emotional, reflecting the fraternity’s solidarity during a time when the actor has faced both legal and monetary challenges.
The Legal Backdrop
The cheque-bounce case against Rajpal Yadav dates back to loans taken for his directorial debut, which failed at the box office. The Delhi High Court ruled that the amounts deposited earlier in the case be released to the complainants and rejected further extensions, leading to his surrender in early February 2026.
With the bail hearing reportedly scheduled soon, Radha said the family will hold a press conference if things proceed as expected.
Conclusion
Radha Yadav’s public expression of gratitude underscores the strong support Rajpal has received from his peers in Bollywood, demonstrating that even in challenging legal and financial circumstances, the film industry often stands by its members.
