Not just this, Doordarshan had collaborated with a Tejpal firm called Amaraman India Pvt. Ltd. for a 52-episode series to mark the 100 years of cinema.
Half of the amount of Rs. 2 crore was paid as advance but Tejpal's firm was unable to meet the deadline and deliver a rough cut on November 15.
Tejpal's siblings Neena and Minty Tejpal along with Tehelka's former managing editor Shoma Chaudhury and Trinamool Congress leader K D Singh are amongst the other partners of the firms. However, Tejpal holds the highest stake.
