The latest celebrity to extend financial help is singer Mika Singh, who has announced a donation of ₹11 lakh to support the comedian during this difficult phase.

He further requested, “I request all the actors, producers, directors, and superstars who have worked with him to support him. I am not asking you to donate 5 crore rupees. If even 20 of us announce 50 lakhs each, 25 lakhs each, or 11 lakhs each, we can help Rajpal Yadav. So don’t just post, don’t show off… Our industry is always there for each other, so please support.”
