After release from jail, Rajpal Yadav says Mumbai has never let him down: ‘Continuously working since 1997’

A week after walking out on bail, Rajpal Yadav has resumed work and connected with fans through a new digital venture. The actor shared a video on Instagram to announce his upcoming series ‘Vanity Vichaar’, a platform where he plans to blend personal reflections with light-hearted, meaningful conversations.

In the first episode, Rajpal looked back at his early struggles in Mumbai and thanked the city for standing by him throughout his journey. He highlighted that work has never stopped coming his way since the day he began his career.

In the video, he said, “With God’s grace and all your love, I am back to work. I first came to Mumbai on June 30, 1997. On July 13 that same year, I received an offer to work in a TV series called Swaraj, which aired on DD One.

It was a small role. By next July, I will complete 30 years in the industry. In these three decades, through good times and bad, Mumbai has never let me down. I have been continuously working since 1997. Makeup has been done, vanity vans have been provided, I have never been without work. ”

He went on to acknowledge the role his family and fans have played in his success. “All this has been possible because of the blessings of my parents and the love of my fans.

Your support has given me confidence and success. ”

Signing off the video, he added, “I will continue to appear on this platform under the series Vanity Vichaar and try to share something meaningful and entertaining to keep you inspired and happy. I love Anjan and Manoranjan. God bless you all.”

Recently, the actor was in the news after surrendering at Tihar Jail in connection with a Rs 9 crore cheque bounce case, a development that led to widespread conversations about his financial troubles.

Several members of the entertainment industry reportedly extended their support during this phase.

Among those who came forward were

Salman Khan, Sonu Sood, television actor Gurmeet Choudhary, singers Mika Singh and Anup Jalota, as well as music composers Guru Randhawa and Rao Inderjeet Singh Yadav.

After being granted bail on the grounds of a family wedding, Rajpal once again expressed heartfelt gratitude to those who stood by him.

In an interaction with UP Tak, he said, “I moved to Mumbai in 1997, and in 2027 it will be 30 years.

I have received so much love that thanking people feels inadequate. Audiences across the world, of all ages, smile when they see me and I smile back at them. I have spent half a century smiling like that. Through theatre, film, and television, I have lived over 500 lives through my roles. ”

He further added, “I thank everyone who supported me on social media. And there are many who didn’t post publicly but reached out personally, that list is long too. When I came out of jail, my wife told me how many people had called and messaged. I haven’t even properly checked my phone yet.”
