An old clip of Nawazuddin Siddiqui speaking about Rajpal Yadav is being circulated on social media. In the video, the ‘Badlapur’ actor can be seen praising the Chhote Pandit of ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’. He said, “When Rajpal was getting good work, he would feed a lot of people. He supported us when we were struggling in the industry. Not once did he back out from helping. He has helped many struggling actors. His house was like a langar—anybody could walk in and eat. He jokes a lot, but in reality, he is a very sensitive human being.”
Nawazuddin recalls that during their struggling days, Rajpal Yadav’s kitchen never stopped running; he fed every guest who visited his home.
“Ironically the people who once ate at his table are now nowhere to be seen when he needs them.”
