India, Feb. 20 -- D ays after actor Rajpal Yadav walked out of Tihar Jail on interim bail on Tuesday in a cheque-bounce case linked to his directorial debut Ata Pata Laapata (2012), his legal team has offered a fresh perspective on the long-running dispute. Advocate Bhaskar Upadhyay claims the matter escalated after businessman Madhav Gopal Agarwal allegedly took offence during the film's music launch event. According to Upadhyay, multiple agreements were signed between the parties until August 2012, with repayments scheduled to begin later that year. However, tensions reportedly surfaced at the September music launch, which was attended by Amitabh Bachchan. "The complainant wanted to share the stage with Mr Bachchan, but Rajpal's team declined as Mr Bachchan was not taking any favours for his presence. The complainant got annoyed and moved the Delhi High Court seeking a stay on the film," Upadhyay tells us. The lawyer adds that the dispute was later settled through a consent agreement in 2013, followed by a consent decree in 2016, under which Rs.10.4 crore became payable. An execution petition was filed the same year, and Rs.1.9 crore was subsequently paid. Upadhyay further alleges that despite a guarantor offering property worth Rs.15 crore as surety - documents of which are with HT City - the complainant refused and instead sought imprisonment. The matter remains sub judice, with Rajpal's team expected to present new points at the March 18 hearing....
