India, Feb. 6 -- Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav reportedly surrendered before the Tihar jail authorities on Thursday following a legal setback in Delhi. This was after the Delhi High Court refused the actor's plea to extend the deadline of his surrender on Wednesday, February 4.

The actor's jail surrender stems from a case filed by a company against the actor and his wife a few years ago, alleging several bounced cheques from them and failure to pay back what was due.

As the court upheld its order directing Rajpal Yadav to surrender before jail authorities, it also said that the court cannot be expected to "create special circumstances" on account of his background or industry.
