Noted actor Rajpal Yadav opens up to, with Subhash K Jha about receiving death threats.
Rajpalji, is it true you have received death threats?
Sir, this has come. I had informed both Amboli Police Station and Cyber Crime and after that I did not discuss this with anyone as it is not my place to say anything about it. I do not know anything about it.
Does it not scare you?
Sir, who won’t get scared when one’s life and family’s safety is threatened. Not all of are like Saif Ali Khan who fought back when his family was threatened. I am an artist and I will keep trying in my art that every child, young or old in the whole world should be happy with our entertainment, I do not want to say anything more than this. Only those agencies are capable of shedding light on this.
Whatever information I got, I have told you. And Sir, I have not discussed this anywhere else.
I appreciate it, Rajpalji
I wish I had more to tell. But beyond that one email I do not have anyinformation . Who send it, what they want, why they chose me , I don’t know. We are all living under a threat these days. Whatever information I had, I have shared with you with great honesty. Sir, please take care and I am always accessible to you.
Your closing thoughts?
Sir, until the day I’m alive, I want to entertain people. You had once told me that the minute I come on screen the audience laughs. Sir, iss se bada vardaan kya ho sakta hai (what can be a greater boon than this)? Baqi, log agar mujhe darana chahte hain toh main kya karun(As for the rest, what should I do if people try to scare me)? Logon ko jis mein khushi ho(that makes people happy)….
You also lost your father?
Jee Sir, jab aafat aati hai toh kai baar ek saath aati hai (When trouble strikes, it often comes together).
He released a statement after we talked and here it is, “Friends, today my energy, my power, the warrior of my life, my revered father, is not physically present among us. But his blessings and inspiration taken from him in life are always with us. I love you all. Thank you very much for all your blessings.”
