Responding to him, Sonu Sood wrote that he will send him soon and on Friday, the family shared a selfie from the train thanking the actor for arranging transport. 

With the actor being termed as a ‘real life hero’, a majority of these memes has been praising him with that title and comparing him to superheroes. In a recent caricature, Sonu was put in the same league as that Batman, Spider-Man, Captain America and Iron Man. The netizen called the Dabangg star as the ‘real hero’ and putting him in the centre, added that he had left the 'sci-fi superheroes' behind. Sonu replied that he was not the superhero, but called the migrants as those deserving of the title. With many migrants walking back home during the lockdown,  Sonu wrote that they had the courage to ‘measure the country on foot’.
