Not because of talent, but because timing can be terrible. He will be a part of my film, and I believe this is a moment for all of us—producers, directors, and colleagues—to stand together.

This entire case dates back to 2010, when Rajpal Yadav took a loan of approximately ₹5 crore from M/s Murali Projects Private Limited to produce his directorial debut film, Aata Pata Lapata. The film was not a financial success, and subsequent delays in repaying the loan amount continued. The complainant company alleges that several checks issued to repay the amount bounced, following which a case was filed against Rajpal Yadav and a company associated with him under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. During the trial, the Karkardooma Court issued several notices to Rajpal Yadav, but he failed to appear in court for a long time. In 2013, he was sent to judicial custody for 10 days. He spent four days in jail from December 3 to 6, 2013. Later, a division bench of the Delhi High Court suspended his sentence on his appeal. Rajpal's sentence was temporarily stayed.
