Sonu Sood, a Bollywood actor popular for his activism and philanthropy, shared a social media post on Twitter amid Bangladesh political turmoil urging people to assist fellow Indians trapped in the country. The escalating violence forced the Prime Minister of Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina, to flee from the country.
The 51-year-old actor emphasised people should come forward to help fellow countrymen in this tense situation as it is not only the government’s responsibility but the citizen’s moral obligation as well.
Sood re-tweeted a video featuring an Indian woman talking about the dangers faced by Indians in the violence-hit Bangladesh. She expressed her longing to return to India, and while sharing the video, Sonu shared a caption that reads, “We should do our best to bring back all our fellow Indians from Bangladesh, so they get a good life here. This is not just the responsibility of our Government which is doing its best but also all of us. Jai Hind.”
