“The love and respect I’m getting cannot be equalled by my work” – Sonu Sood on being honoured by Spice Jet : Bollywood News

An entire Spice Jet aircraft has been painted with a message praising Sonu Sood for his philanthropic work. The message reads, “A Salute To The Saviour Sonu Sood.” Sounding deeply moved Sonu Sood says, “It’s phenomenal…the whole experience of seeing myself painted on an aircraft…I’ve never seen anything like this. I hope I’ve done something to deserve this. The love and respect I’m getting cannot be equalled by my work. Lots of duas prayers and best wishes are working. Otherwise so many other people try to help the needy. They don’t get the love I’m getting.”

Sonu Sood remembers coming to Mumbai without the money to buy himself an air ticket. “I remember coming from my home town Moga in Punjab to Mumbai in train without reservation. In the middle of the night when I was sitting in a corner of that train a man came to me and said, ‘Mumbai is not an easy city to live in.’ I remember telling him , ‘I am going to Mumbai with my parents’ blessings. I will make it happen.’ When today this happens I believe my parents’ prayers did the trick.”

Sonu Sood misses his parents’ presence especially during these moments of triumph. “I hope they are watching this. I want them to know it’s happening only because of them. They are my guiding angels. I wish they here to see their son’s face on that aircraft.”

Every day the number of the needy asking for favours increases. How does Sonu Sood deal with nuisance demands, like guys asking him to meet their girlfriends during the lockdown or a guy desirous of Sood arranging his marriage? “I deal with it humorously, lightly. No person reaching out to me for help should feel insulted, no matter how far-fetched the demand. I am really happy and grateful. I feel I am on the right path.’
