How did Rajpal and Radha meet?

According to Bollywood Shaadi.com, Rajpal Yadav and Radha met in 2001 in Calgary, Canada, when Rajpal had gone there for the shooting of the film ‘The Hero: Love Story of a Spy’. During the two-month shooting schedule, Rajpal went to an ice cream parlor with his friend and co-star Parveen Dabas, where he saw Radha for the first time and was instantly attracted. The same evening they met again through a common friend and started liking each other. Rajpal also went to Radha’s house and met her family. After returning to India, the two maintained a long-distance relationship over the phone for 10 months. One morning Rajpal expressed his love on the phone, to which Radha asked, ‘Are you sure?’.

Radha came to India after marriage and started living with Rajpal.

family and children

Radha is Rajpal’s second wife. Rajpal’s first marriage was to Karuna Yadav in 1992, which was an arranged marriage. Karuna died of medical complications in 1991, shortly after the birth of her daughter Jyoti. After marriage, Radha adopted Jyoti as her daughter and raised her. Rajpal praised Radha in an interview in 2023 and said, ‘Believe me, I never pressured my wife to wear a saree or in any way. The way I talk to my mother, my wife talks to her. She learned the language, one day when I reached the village, I saw that she was sitting with her face covered, because women in villages live in a special way. Whenever she goes to the village on Holi and Diwali, no one can understand that she knows five languages. He has elder daughter Harshita Yadav from his first wife and younger daughter Rehanshi Yadav from Radha.

What is the matter of check bounce?

This whole matter dates back to 2010, when Rajpal had taken a loan of about Rs 5 crore from a company to make his first directorial film ‘Ata Pata Lapata’. But the film flopped at the box office, due to which the loan could not be repaid. Due to interest, penalty and delay, this amount has now increased to approximately Rs 9 crore. The company filed separate cases when several checks bounced, and the court sentenced them to 6 months imprisonment. The court gave him several chances, but when he could not pay the full amount, he had to go to jail. Before going to jail, Rajpal became very emotional and said that he had no money and was feeling alone in this difficult time. But the good thing is that many big stars of Bollywood decided to stand with him.
