A personal appearance warrant has been issued against Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav in the Mahu court of Indore for allegedly issuing a bounced cheque worth Rs 25 lakh. The court has set October 13 as the date for his individual appearance, signalling a formal step in the criminal proceeding.
The same day, the Supreme Court of India directed Yadav to deposit Rs 85 lakh, a separate monetary order that runs parallel to the lower‑court case. The high court’s directive underscores the seriousness with which the judiciary is treating the financial default.
