Its been an extremely emotional journey for me, says Sonu Sood
Just a few days ago, actor Sonu Sood organised 10 buses for migrant workers to take them back home to Gulbarga, Karnataka. Now, the Dabangg (2010) actor has organised multiple bus services to take migrant workers to Uttar Pradesh (UP). Amidst the ongoing coronavirus crisis, Sood has taken extra precautions and after several efforts, managed to get official permissions from the UP state government to send migrants to their home towns.
“Helping him in the endeavour to help hundreds of migrants meet their families is Sood’s good friend Neeti Goel, who’s also a part of this initiative. Multiple buses left from Wadala, Mumbai on May 15 to various parts of Uttar Pradesh including Lucknow, Hardoi, Pratapgarh and Siddharthnagar, as well as to cities in Jharkhand and Bihar. Sonu was present to bid goodbye to the migrants and even made arrangements for their meals,” says a source.
Opening up about the same, Sood says, “It has been an extremely emotional journey for me, as my heart pains to see these migrants staying away from their homes and trying to walk all the way home. I will continue sending migrants home until the last migrant reunites with his family and loved ones. This is something really close to my heart and I will give it my all.”
