Sonu Sood Extends Support to Rajpal Yadav During Tough Time

Actor Rajpal Yadav was recently sent to Tihar Jail in connection with a ₹9 crore debt and cheque bounce case linked to a loan taken during a 2010 film. Before surrendering, Rajpal made an emotional statement, admitting he was under severe financial stress and had no one to seek help from, which moved many across the film industry.

Stepping forward in solidarity, actor Sonu Sood announced that Rajpal will be part of his upcoming film. Sonu also offered him a small signing amount to provide immediate financial relief, making it clear that the gesture was not charity but professional respect and dignity for a talented actor.

Sharing his thoughts on social media, Sonu praised Rajpal’s contribution to cinema and urged fellow filmmakers and colleagues to support him. He emphasized that difficult phases can affect anyone and the industry must stand united to ensure no one feels alone during such times.
