First advice, spruce of your English.

If you have given a cheque for Rs.45000/- to your friend as a loan and in turn he has endorsed it to his creditor in discharge of the loan taken by him, that creditor can certainly file a case under Sec.138 N.I.Act against you. You have to pay him the amount and recover it from your friend to avoid being prosecuted in case his creditor issues demand notice to you on the bounced cheque.

That was a valid consideration for the payee; you may need to make payment of cheque amount to the payee to avoid your criminal prosecution and a possible jail term.
