‘Hope is not acting here’, CJI on Rajpal’s cheque bounce cases

Actor Rajpal Yadav has been granted a two-week period by the Supreme Court to repay Rs 2 crore. The ruling comes in the wake of the Delhi High Court finding him guilty across seven cheque bounce matters. Yadav initially secured a loan of roughly Rs 5 crore back in 2010 to support a movie production. The film ultimately underperformed, triggering mounting financial difficulties that led to his present legal challenges. Additionally, the court directed him to surrender his passport.
