Actor Sonu Sood has been a messiah for the poor and needy amid the coronavirus lockdown From sending stranded migrants in various parts of the country back to their hometowns to booking chartered flights for students stuck abroad, Sonu left no stones unturned in forwarding a helping hand to those who needed him the most. While the Simbba actor has been receiving praise from all walks of life, he recently made the headlines after a Twitter user called him a fake philanthropist.

This happened after a Twitter user named Snehal asked for help for her ailing child on micro-blogging site and Sonu promised to help in any way he can. Soon another Twitter user alleged that it has been PR stunt by the Dabangg actor as Snehal’s account didn’t seem legitimate. In fact, he also alleged that the lady never tagged Sonu in any tweet and hasn’t even shared any contact details. “But Sonu Sood somehow found the Tweet and offered help. Most of the earlier handles who sought help deleted their tweets. This is how PR team works,” he added.

However, Sonu came up with a perfect response and shared proof to shut down his haters. He shared screenshots of a hospital’s scheduled paediatric surgeries which even had Snehal’s name mentioned in it. Sonu wrote, “That’s the best part brother. I find a needy & they somehow find me. It’s about “INTENTIONS”, but u won’t understand. Tom patient will be in SRCC Hospital kindly do ur bit. Send some fruits for him. Someone with 2-3 followers will be happy to get some love from a man with followers.”On the movies front, Sonu will feature in Bollywood film Prithviraj alongside Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt and Manushi Chillar. The shoot on the project has already begun.
