As we are well aware, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected millions of lives. The Bollywood industry might have come back on track, but a common man’s life is still on a halt. The situation is not at all favorable as seen in schools, colleges and offices. But if there is one Bollywood celebrity who has extended a helping hand to help out common people in these tough times, then it is Sonu Sood.
From April till this date today, the Dabangg actor has been using his social media platforms to help the migrants and also the people struggling with jobs, along with school/college students. In such crucial times, he has come out as a true her, for which he is appreciated by many. However ther also are many who call him a fraud and a fake. He has also been trolled for his gesture of kindness.
He finally spoke up on this in a recent interview and said, “I heard a story as a child. A sadhu (godman) had a magnificent horse and a daaku asked him to give the horse to him. The sadhu refused and went ahead. In the jungle, he saw an elderly man who could barely walk. He offered the horse to the old man. The moment he sat on the horse, he revealed himself to be the daaku and started getting away. The holy man stopped him and said that you can take the horse but don’t tell anyone how you took my horse because then people will stop believing in doing good deeds. That is my reply to trolls, you may be doing it because it is your profession, you are being paid for it. It doesn’t affect me and I will continue doing what I do.”
He further said, “For those who claim that I am not doing anything, my reply is that I have a database of 7,03,246 people whom I have helped and whose addresses, phone numbers, Aadhar card numbers I have. All the students whom I have helped to come from abroad, I have all their details. I don’t want to clarify but I have the data. Instead of trolling me, go out and help someone.”
