Actor and philanthropist Sonu Sood has said that he is a huge fan of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Recently, in an interview with Times Now, Sonu was asked to chooose between Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and the PM when he said both are his favourite.
“Both are my favourite, how political correct can I be on Frankly Speaking. I am a huge Modi fan. The way he connected with common man, it is really inspirational. He is a leader who went ahead for some revolutionary decisions in the country. He is the one I really look up to,” Sonu said.
Sonu further added that he does not have any friends in political parties and got appreciation and support from multiple party leaders for his philanthropic work during the COVID-19 lockdown.
“No. I don’t have any friends. I know. Sometimes you have gatherings where there are ministers also. I have been nice to everyone. Everyone appreciated and supported my efforts. Priyanka Gandhi was the first one to appreciate my efforts and said, well done Sonu. People from NCP, Mr. Deshmukh, said that I am doing pretty well. To be frank, I don’t know how the system functions but I know somewhere in their heart they know, that my intentions are right,” he said.
Sonu had earlier made it clear that he is not interested in politics. “I have nothing to do with politics. I am doing this purely out of my love for migrants. I want to help reunite them with their families,” he told PTI.
He estimates that he has helped around 30,000 stranded migrant workers to go back to their homes. “I intend to work till the last migrant reaches his home. The journey has to continue in full force. No one should be rendered homeless. We want them to reach home safely,” Sonu had said.
