Actor Rajpal Yadav, who came out of jail in the check bounce case, is once again in the news. Director Priyadarshan had attributed his difficulties to ‘less education’. Rajpal was very disappointed by this statement. In an interview, Rajpal clearly said that he is not illiterate, but is a graduate of National School of Drama and he is proud of his education.
Rajpal respects Priyadarshan
Talking to E-Times, Rajpal Yadav said that he respects Priyadarshanji a lot, but cannot understand why he made such a statement. He is educated from National School of Drama. While working in the film industry, no one goes to the sets with their degree certificate. Here talent and hard work matter, not paper degree. He raised the question that when there was no discussion about his and Priyadarshan’s studies, then why such comments were made. However, despite this statement, Rajpal maintained respect for his old relationships.
Rajpal is grateful to these directors
Rajpal said that there are three directors to whom he will always be grateful – Ram Gopal Varma, David Dhawan and Priyadarshan. He has worked with these directors in 40-50 films and many times did films without talking about money and only on the basis of trust. When he was asked why no big director helped him during the financial crisis, he clearly said that this is a personal matter. Only he and the complainant are involved in this and this matter is related to his home district Shahjahanpur and he is confident that it will be resolved soon.
Rajpal learned a lesson from jail
Rajpal also shared an emotional thing while remembering his father. His father was a farmer and was not educated, but considered honesty as the greatest virtue. He had told his son that if he was not qualified in the exam then he should not pass it and if needed he would take up farming. Even today, he considers himself a farmer’s son, who made a place in the world of acting through hard work. He has taken the time spent in jail as a lesson. Life is the greatest teacher and now he sees himself as a student every day.
Talking about the work front, Rajpal Yadav will soon be seen in Priyadarshan’s film ‘Haivaan’, in which Saif Ali Khan and Akshay Kumar will be seen together. Apart from this, he will be seen with Akshay Kumar and Disha Patani in ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ and with Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan in ‘Bhoot Bangla’.
