Renowned filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi was sentenced to two years in jail and ordered to pay Rs 2 crore to a complainant in a cheque return case by a court in Jamnagar, Gujarat. The court granted Santoshi a 30-day stay on the order to appeal in a higher court. The case stemmed from an industrialist named Ashok Lal lending Rs 1 crore to Santoshi for film production, against which Santoshi issued 10 cheques of Rs 10 lakh each.
