With the ongoing pandemic and lockdown, our Bollywood celebrities are doing their bit towards society through contributions, providing food and essentials and spreading awareness.
Amid all this, actor Sonu Sood has arranged buses for hundreds of migrants stuck in the city amid the nationwide lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
After his team charted out all the formalities, the actor had 10 buses to accommodate 350 people who belonged to a small town called Gulbarga in Karnataka.

“The Maharashtra government officials were very helpful in terms of organising the paperwork and a special mention to the Karnataka government for welcoming the migrants back home.
“It was really moving for me to watch these migrants walking on roads including the little kids and old parents. I shall continue doing the same for other states as well to the best of my abilities,” Sonu said in a statement.
