In the meantime, Sonu has also launched an app named 'Pravasi Rozgar' that will help employees find work. Talking about the app to a news portal, the actor revealed that he and his team have a website and an app. He also said that they have people on the ground so that they can help workers register themselves. The actor further added that they also have a helpline number where the workers can call and register themselves giving them details about their skillset and the one that they will need to acquire.

Sonu further said that they will create their profiles, train them and also help them reach potential employers. Further adding that right now, they do not know where they will work and people who need labour don’t know how to find them. So the idea of the app is an end-to-end exercise for people who are seeking work from grass root level without charging them a penny for it.
