SCOOP: Ranveer Singh cites Baiju Bawra 'no compensation' experience in Don 3 showdown; brings up Shah Rukh Khan angle over Rs. 40 cr demand

Yesterday, Bollywood Hungama reported on what happened at the meeting between Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani of Excel Entertainment and Ranveer Singh after the latter walked out of Don 3. Both parties blamed each other for various reasons. Bollywood Hungama had earlier reported the key developments from the meeting in detail. Now, a reliable source has revealed another important point that was discussed.The source told Bollywood Hungama, “The bone of contention was that Ranveer Singh should pay Rs. 40 crores to Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani for the losses incurred in the pre-production of the film. Ranveer argued that he was not liable to pay as he had not taken a single paisa from the producers. Hence, paying back such a hefty amount was out of the question.”The source continued, “Ranveer Singh also pointed out that he was to work in a film called Baiju Bawra, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He prepped for the challenging role for almost a year and turned down several films as a result. Ultimately, Baiju Bawra was shelved and Sanjay Leela Bhansali then began working on Love & War, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal. Ranveer revealed that he was not compensated for the year he spent preparing for the role. He further argued that it’s the nature of the business – at times, films don’t get made or are relegated to the backburner for various reasons and no one gets compensated for it.”The source added, “Ranveer also said that there were reports that Shah Rukh Khan, who led Don (2006) and Don 2 (2011), was approached for Don 3 as well. He argued that had SRK agreed, he would have been replaced, without any compensation. Hence, he felt justified in not being liable to pay the producers Rs. 40 crores.”Also Read: Ranveer Singh receives threat; security heightened at Mumbai residence as police launch probe

Rajpal Yadav surrenders in Rs 9 crores cheque-bounce case: After Sonu Sood, music producer, Kamaal R Khan, and Tej Pratap Yadav offer financial aid

Actor Rajpal Yadav, known for his comic roles in Hindi cinema, has surrendered at Delhi’s Tihar Jail in connection with a decade-old cheque-bounce case involving nearly Rs 9 crores. Following his surrender, several members of the film industry and political figures have publicly offered financial assistance to help the actor address his legal and monetary troubles.According to PTI, the matter dates back to 2010 when Rajpal Yadav borrowed Rs 5 crores from M/s Murali Projects Pvt Ltd to finance his directorial venture Ata Pata Laapata. The film failed at the box office, resulting in significant losses.Over the years, accumulated interest, penalties and delays reportedly increased the outstanding amount to approximately Rs 9 crores. In an attempt to clear the dues, Yadav issued multiple cheques to the lender. However, these were dishonoured, leading to criminal proceedings under the Negotiable Instruments Act.On February 2, 2026, the Delhi High Court directed the actor to surrender before jail authorities by 4 pm on February 4, observing that his conduct deserved to be deprecated due to repeated breaches of undertakings.On February 5, 2026, Rajpal Yadav appeared physically before the court. His counsel informed the court that he was ready to submit a demand draft of Rs 25 lakhs and adhere to a fresh payment schedule. Despite the offer, the judge declined to recall the surrender order, stating that compassion must be balanced with discipline and that the judiciary could not create “special circumstances” for individuals from the film industry.Later that day, Yadav surrendered at Tihar Jail and began serving his six-month sentence. Jail authorities confirmed that standard procedures were followed. Industry members step in with financial aid In the wake of his incarceration, several public figures have extended financial support.Music producer Rao Inderjeet Singh Yadav, owner of GemTunes Music, announced assistance of Rs 1.1 crores. Speaking to IANS, he said, “Rajpal ji has given immeasurable joy to audiences and has been an integral part of Indian cinema. This support is not about money; it is about standing with a fellow human being in his time of need.“Our industry is a family, and families hold each other when it matters most.” He also shared a post on Instagram urging others to come forward and help the actor.Earlier, actors Sonu Sood and Gurmeet Chaudhary, along with Tej Pratap Yadav, national president of Jan Shakti Janata Dal, also offered their assistance.Tej Pratap Yadav wrote in Hindi on X, “I just received information about the pain of the family of the honorable Rajpal Yadav ji through the post of my elder brother Rao Inderjeet Yadav ji. In this extremely difficult time, I and my entire JJD (Jan Shakti Janata Dal) family stand in complete empathy and solidarity with their grieving family.With a spirit of human compassion and support, on behalf of the JJD family, I am providing financial assistance of ₹11,00,000 (eleven lakh rupees) to their family.”Actor and film critic Kamaal R Khan (KRK) also pledged ₹10 lakh and urged the film fraternity to contribute collectively. On X, he wrote, “I am ready to give ₹10 lakhs for Rajpal Yadav. Let’s all Bollywood people come together to give him ₹5cr! If he does pay back only ₹5cr so he can come out from jail immediately! Let’s all help him (sic).”On the professional front, Rajpal Yadav was last seen in Baby John and Interrogation. He is next slated to appear in Akshay Kumar’s horror-comedy Bhoot Bangla, which is scheduled to release on April 10.Also Read: Rajpal Yadav before surrendering to Tihar Jail authorities, “There’s no other way out, there are no friends”

Ghooskhor Pandat to be retitled after backlash; Delhi HC closes plea

New Delhi: The makers of the upcoming Netflix film originally titled Ghooskhor Pandat, starring Manoj Bajpayee, have decided to change the film’s title following public backlash and legal objections.The controversy began after the title , combining a word commonly understood to mean “bribe-taker” with a variation of “Pandit,” a term associated with Brahmin priests — drew criticism from sections of the community. Critics argued that the title appeared to link a caste group with corruption and could hurt religious sentiments.A petition was subsequently filed in the Delhi High Court seeking a stay on the film’s release. The plea contended that the title and promotional material were defamatory and could disturb communal harmony. During the hearing, the producers and the streaming platform informed the court that they would change the title and remove existing promotional material carrying the original name. The court then disposed of the petition.The issue also triggered protests and criticism on social media, with some industry bodies reportedly stating that the original title had not received formal approval through standard processes.Earlier, actor Manoj Bajpayee and director Neeraj Pandey had clarified that the film is a work of fiction and was not intended to target any community. They said the title was connected to the narrative and character arc within the story.The new title of the film and its revised release plans are yet to be announced.Also Read: After Neeraj Pandey, Manoj Bajpayee addresses backlash over Ghooskhor Pandat title: “Not meant to be a statement about any community”
