Reacting to the same, Sonu had told TOI, “When those allegations were made about me and the controversy erupted, I didn’t even read what was being written. When someone called to take my opinion on the matter, I was busy arranging travel for labourers and I told the person that right now I am doing something important and I don’t have time to react. I don’t care about such allegations. The idea is, when you are trying to do something different and good, people will point their fingers at you. As a matter of fact, such allegations strengthen my resolve to do more and do better. And we actually got inspired to do more. We are, and we will continue doing the good work.” (ALSO READ: Dil Bechara Title Track: Sonu Sood Congratulates Sushant Singh Rajput 'In Advance'; Says ‘He’s Watching From Heaven, World Will Miss Him Forever’)
