Rajpal Yadav’s Shahjahanpur property sealed by CBI over unpaid loan of more than Rs 11 crore; know DETAILS

Rajpal Yadav has found himself in a dire pool of fresh controversies. In a report first published in Free Press Journal, it has been reported that the actor’s Shahjahanpur property located in Seth Enclave Colony, near Kachhari has been sealed by the Central Bank of India. This is following an unpaid loan amount that the actor took worth Rs 3 crore while mortgaging his property.

Reports suggested that Rajpal Yadav established a production house under his parent’s name listing his property with the back. Named Shri Naurang Godavari Entertainment Limited, the production house is legally owned by his wife Radha Yadav. It produced a movie featuring several local artists from Shahjahanpur headlined by Rajpal and late actor Om Puri.

The loan was taken from the Central Bank of India’s Mumbai branch at Bandra Kurla Complex and after a long time of non-payment, the loan amount has now reached Rs 11 crore. The report further suggested that on August 8, some officials of CBI’s Mumbai team arrived in Shahjahanpur and sealed Yadav’s property without the involvement or information to local police and officials.

The sealing was so discreet that while hurrying for it, they locked the main gate while leaving the cooler turned on. Strangely, on Monday, no sign of any notice declaring the bank’s claim over the property was found. It is being said that despite CBI’s previous request for security support, no local police got involved in it.

While the manager of CBI’s local branch Manoj confirmed the Mumbai team’s involvement in the sealing operation, the bank’s Bareilly DRM, SK Sabharwal, refused to comment on the matter, as per FPJ. Rajpal Yadav is also yet to address the matter.

For the unversed, this is not the first time Yadav has found himself in such trouble. Back in 2010, the actor borrowed Rs 5 crore from the director of Murli Projects Private Limited – Madhav Gopal Agrawal in order to make the film Ata Pata Laapata. Then also he failed to repay the due reaching an amount of Rs 10 crores

You’ll be shocked to know that due to a bounced check in this case, Rajpal even had to serve in jail. Later, Delhi’s Karkardooma Court ordered Yadav to repay Rs 14 crore to settle the dispute.

Blake Lively’s Response to Domestic Violence Criticism Sparks Further Outrage from Fans; Here’s Why

Trigger Warning: This article contains mentions of domestic violence. 

Blake Lively starrer It Ends With Us has been grabbing headlines since its announcement. From leaks on the film’s sets to hints of drama among the cast, the film has been embroiled in one controversy after another. One major criticism has been the way its promotional tour, led by Blake Lively, has been handled.

It Ends With Us, based on Colleen Hoover’s novel, explores themes of domestic violence in romantic relationships. However, the promotional tour has portrayed the film as a bubbly, wholesome love story, similar to last year’s Barbie, despite it being anything but that. This has not gone down well with fans of the book or those familiar with the source material.

Coincidentally, the film’s director and co-lead actor, Justin Baldoni, has been on a separate press tour promoting the actual themes of the movie. His separation from the rest of the cast and rumors of a feud with Lively have only fueled the criticism against her.

To address the backlash, Lively posted a story on Instagram advocating for domestic violence victims and providing resources for help. However, this move backfired, as fans criticized it as a delayed effort, prompted only by the ongoing criticism of her and the film’s promotional tour.

Some Twitter users even accused Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, of using the film as a promotional tool for their personal brands, including Deadpool & Wolverine, which released a few weeks before It Ends With Us.

Despite all this, the movie has exceeded expectations on the box-office and has even led to Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively breaking Bruce Willis’ and Demi Moore’s decades-old record of a couple having the top two movies running concurrently on the US box office. Whether the online criticism affects the films’ rest of the run or not remains to be seen.

Disclaimer: If you need support or know someone who is struggling with domestic violence, assault or abuse, please reach out to your nearest mental health specialist, NGO or speak to someone about it. There are several helplines available for the same.
