New Delhi, February 16 Actor and boxer Vijender Singh extended his support to comedian Rajpal Yadav and invited him to join his upcoming film with Sanjay Sanju Saini.
Singh wrote a note on his X handle on Sunday, saying that Yadav has given a lot to Indian cinema.
"I respect true talent. @rajpalofficial has given a lot to Indian cinema. He has brought smiles to our faces through so many characters. I extend an invitation to Rajpal Yadav ji to work together in my upcoming film, which is written and directed by @thesanjusaini, and we would like to support him at this time. #rajpalyadav," he wrote.
The filmmaker also responded to the tweet, saying that Yadav joining the project would only benefit the film. "We would love to see @rajpalofficial Sir on our set. Thanks @boxervijender bhaisaab. This support will not only benefit Rajpal Yadav sir, but also our film… thank you so much, bhaisaab," he said.
Yadav, known for movies such as "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi", "Waqt", "Phir Hera Pheri", "Partner", "Bhool Bhulaiyaa", "Hungama" and "Chup Chup Ke", was sent to Tihar jail last week after the Delhi High Court rejected his plea seeking more time to repay the outstanding amount in cheque bounce cases. The actor has to pay nearly Rs 9 crore.
Actors Sonu Sood, Gurmeet Chaudhary, and music composer Rao Inderjit Yadav have also offered financial assistance to the family and urged others to do so.
