Bollywood actor Sonu Sood yet again came forward to help three persons of Bengal stuck in Pune, after one of them tagged him on a Twitter post and shared about their plight. Sonu, who has been helping stranded people return home since the start of the lockdown, was quick to respond.
Howrah resident Anupam Chakraborty, the person who tweeted, was greeted with the 46-year-old actor’s response where he said that he will send all three of them back home.
“Pack your bags brother. Kolkata is calling,” he said in reply to Chakraborty’s SOS tweet.
The 36-year-old from Jhikira village in Howrah said that he and two others have been stuck in Pune since March. He also attached a document with his tweet, providing details such as Aadhaar number, age and other relevant information.
While he is best known for playing the villain in films, Sonu has turned a hero in real life during the lockdown by successfully sending thousands of stranded workers home.
Another student who reached out to Sood for help during the day also received a prompt reply.
“All the students who are left out and couldn’t book, kindly make a list according to the destination you wanna go. I will plan for them accordingly,” Sood said on the microblogging site.
On Monday, the actor had said that he would provide financial assistance to over 400 families of deceased and injured migrant workers.
