Sonu Sood The Made In 'India' Superman

This is our first proper cover-shoot since the pandemic and we were more than sure it has to be with this man, the one and only Sonu Sood who is a classic example of Good Karma, and proof that great things happen to great people. Here’s an excerpt of our conversation:

TURTLE NECK PULLOVER| ZARA, DENIMS| DSQUARED2, SHOES| DSQUARED2

Ramesh: We have to start from your migrant sending initiative of sending them back to their home ? What triggered this thought ..

Sonu: I felt these are the people who actually built our homes, these are the people who actually built our roads and today when they wanted to go back to their own homes and there was no one to actually help them so I just thought to put these efforts to get up, to get them back to their families. I just went on the field and it just happened and I could see the wishes of these migrants and their families. They finally got back and really went to their families so I think that’s something which is not planned, that’s something I'm not trained to do but I was blessed to make this happen.

ex: Did u ever get that thought in your mind , “It's done now”?

It’s not done yet, as we’re shooting now I’m still getting calls. I think the field has changed first it was just a movement that started from Maharashtra to the other states then it started from Jammu Kashmir to Kanyakumari now there’s an international evacuation happening, we just did evacuation of almost 4000 students from Kyrgyzstan. Now it’s Uzbekistan, Moscow, Philippines and other countries also, so I kind of feel like the responsibilities that are on my shoulders keep on increasing everyday and I'm glad that I'm able to keep up to those expectations.

ex: What’s your brush with technology?
