Event Summary

Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav was granted interim bail and released from Tihar Jail on Tuesday evening after the India — Delhi High Court suspended his six-month sentence in multiple cheque bounce cases. This relief came after Rajpal Yadav deposited Rs 1.5 crore with the complainant, Samyak Projects Private Limited. The court had previously criticized Rajpal Yadav's conduct for repeatedly breaching undertakings to repay dues. The India — Delhi High Court has directed Rajpal Yadav to surrender his passport and not leave India without prior permission. He is also required to be present, either physically or virtually, for the next hearing on March 18. The legal battle originated in 2010 when Rajpal Yadav took a loan of Rs 5 crore from Samyak Projects Private Limited to fund a film, which subsequently failed at the box office, leading to a Rs 9 crore outstanding debt.
