In February this year, Rajpal Yadav surrendered before authorities and was sent to Tihar Jail in connection with a ₹9 crore debt and cheque bounce case. Shortly after, on February 16, he was granted interim bail until March 18, offering him temporary relief in the legal matter. Recently, the actor looked back on this challenging phase of his life during a candid conversation with filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan, opening up about his experiences and reflections from that period.
During the vlog, Rajpal Yadav cooked mixed vegetable rice for Farah Khan and Dilip, recalling how he used to make the dish during his struggling days in Mumbai to avoid cooking chapatis for many people. He also shared that during his jail term, things never escalated to the point where he was assigned any duties.
Talking about his term in Tihar Jail, Rajpal Yadav said, "Voh naubat nahi thi, lekin bahut discipline se rehna tha vahan pe aur proper time katna tha (It hadn’t come to that point, but one had to stay very disciplined there and serve the time properly)."
