Sonu Sood’s messianic fame is spreading across the world. The latest community of the distressed to reach out to India’s No.1 Covid saviour is the NRIs. Apparently this foreign persuasion for phoran (immediate) remedial help which started as a trickle, has now become a torrent.
Confirming the same amidst a barrage of missed calls (Sonu got 27 missed calls while we spoke) Sonu revealed, “You’ve heard rightly, Sir. The NRI boys and girls who cannot reach out and help their parents immediately because of the distance—some of these NRIs’ elders live in remote villages-- have started reaching out to me in hundreds. In the beginning I got a few such calls, and I attended to their needs. Then the number of calls from the NRIs began increasing by volumes.”
Now Sonu get a 100-150 calls per week from NRIs seeking my assistance for their parents.
Sonu is getting little sleep because of these NRI SOS calls. “I get panic calls from Manila, Singapore, the US , Canada and their time zones are different from ours. So the phone rings from unknown destinations at 2am and 4 am. I don’t mind at all. I know I need to get some sleep.As things are,I am not getting any sleep . But there is so much to do. Even one life saved is definitely worth more than my sleep.”
