Why was Rajpal Yadav arrested?

For the uninitiated, Rajpal and his wife had taken a loan of Rs 5 crore for the actor’s film, Ata Pata Laapata. However, the actor struggled to repay the loan. As he failed to pay the amount, it escalated to Rs 9 crore due to accumulated interest and penalties. Earlier this year, the actor surrendered in the cheque-bounce case. Days after being in Tihar Jail, Rajpal was granted an interim bail on February 16.
