A statement is doing rounds on social media on how Sonu Sood is known for his roles as a villain but has turned a ‘hero’ in real life. The actor’s gesture of arranging the journeys of migrant workers and other stranded persons to go home amid the lockdown has become a talking point across the country. It is not just that the netizens, but celebrities across industries have also hailed him for his efforts.
This was evident once again after Sonu helped some more people head back home recently. Suresh Raina was among those who shared a new video of the actor seeing off people with the help of his buses.
Sonu was seen waving at the travellers, urging them to wear a mask, asking them if they were working or studying and asking them to come back. One man even told Sonu that he’d pray for Sonu and the actor responded, “God bless you.’ Raina wrote that Sonu will be remembered in the country for working day and night to help those from other cities head back home.
