Sonu Sood helps airlift 177 girls stuck in Kerala

Sonu Sood continues to win hearts with his humanitarian deeds in these trying times. After helping hundreds of migrant workers, who were stranded in the city without income or food, reach their homes safely, he has now proved to be a messiah for 177 helpless girls stuck in Kerala. The actor had them airlifted and sent home. They were stuck in Ernakulam, Kerala amidst the nationwide lockdown.

According to reports, these girls were doing the stitching and embroidery work at a local factory in Kerala and had nowhere to go soon after the factory was closed down due to COVID-19. A source close to the actor told the daily, “Sonu was informed about the same by a close friend from Bhubaneswar and he decided to take charge of the situation and do his best for the girls. He started the process by taking several permissions from the government to have Kochi and Bhubaneswar airport to be operated. A special aircraft has been called from Bangalore to airlift these girls from Kochi who will be now taken to Bhubaneswar so they can finally reunite with their families. The duration from Bhubaneswar to their village is going to be 2 hours and soon after finishing their journey, the girls will be heading back home.”

Sonu achieved this task with the help of his friend, Neeti Goel. The two continue to win the hearts of millions of Indians with their #GharBhejo initiative. We applaud Sonu Sood's selfless contribution towards fighting the Covid-19 crisis.
