Actor Rajpal Yadav grabbed headlines after he landed in trouble over the payment of settlement amounts in a cheque-bounce case. After failing to repay the loan and multiple post-dated cheques issued in connection with it, the actor was ordered to surrender to Tihar Jail in early February 2026. He was granted interim bail a few days ago, on February 16. Taking to his Instagram account on Saturday, Rajpal announced that he is starting his own YouTube channel.

In his first YouTube video, Rajpal shared the same clip, and added a few more lines where he said that he will keep updating about his personal as well as professional life on the platform.
Rajpal Yadav surrendered in Tihar Jail on February 5 after the Delhi High Court declined to grant him more time in long-pending cheque bounce cases. The actor, known for films such as Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, Waqt, Phir Hera Pheri, Partner, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Hungama and Chup Chup Ke, ran into legal trouble over a long-running ₹9 crore cheque bounce and debt case, which dates back to a loan he took in 2010 to finance his directorial debut, Ata Pata Laapata.
Several celebrities have stepped forward to support him since the news of his jail term surfaced. Sonu Sood was among the first to publicly offer his help. Gurmeet Choudhary, Guru Randhawa and Mika Singh have offered financial assistance. On the work front, he will be seen next in Bhooth Bangla.
