Amid
the
COVID-19
pandemic,
actor
Sonu
Sood
has
emerged
to
be
nothing
less
than
a
superhero
with
his
philanthropy
work.
Last
year,
the
Dabangg
actor
won
hearts
when
he
made
sure
that
the
migrant
workers
reach
their
hometowns
safely
during
the
COVID-19
crisis.
Now,
Sonu
and
his
team
are
working
relentlessly
to
help
those
facing
the
brunt
of
the
second
wave
of
the
pandemic.
From
helping
people
in
availing
oxygen
cylinders,
ICU
beds,
medical
facilities
to
providing
them
with
food
and
shelter,
the
actor
has
been
doing
it
all.
Recently,
Sonu
had
helped
in
getting
a
critically
ill
COVID-19
airlifted
in
an
air
ambulance
from
Nagpur
to
Hyderabad.
Further,
he
had
got
her
accommodated
in
Apollo
Hospitals
in
Hyderabad
when
he
came
to
know
that
she
needed
special
treatment
called
ECMO
(Extracorporeal
membrane
oxygenation).
Unfortunately,
the
25-year-old
girl
who
had
lost
85-90
per
cent
of
her
lungs
due
to
COVID-19,
breathed
her
last
on
Friday
(May
7,
2021).
A
heartbroken
Sonu
Sood
took
to
his
Instagram
page
to
mourn
her
demise
with
a
heartfelt
post.
Captioning
his
post
as
"This
world
will
always
miss
you,"
Sonu
wrote,
"Bharti,
a
young
girl
from
Nagpur
whom
I
airlifted
on
an
air
ambulance
to
Hyderabad
passed
away
last
night.
Rest
In
Power
My
Dear
Bhrarti.
You
fought
the
last
month
like
a
complete
tigress
on
an
Ecmo
machine.
Even
though
i
never
met
you,
you'll
Always
hold
a
very
speacial
place
in
my
Heart.
My
condolences
to
her
entire
family,
I'm
going
to
meet
them
very
soon.
life
is
genuinely
unfair
at
times.
"will
miss
you
bharti."
Sonu
who
has
been
actively
making
use
of
social
media
to
help
people
in
availing
COVID-19
resources,
recently
tweeted
about
how
'helpless'
he
felt
when
he
could
not
make
someone
avail
of
a
bed
in
the
ICU.
He
wrote
in
his
tweet,
"When
I
fail
to
get
an
ICU
bed
for
someone
who
needs
it
the
most
&
want
to
save
a
loved
one,
I
feel
so
helpless.
Wish
I
had
a
magic
wand
&
every
thing
could
fall
right
but
the
reality
is
I
will
sleep
with
a
prayer
to
give
me
time
till
tomorrow.
I
will
make
it
happen.
Just
pray."
However,
the
next
day,
he
shared
an
update
on
his
tweet
and
wrote,
"N
yes..
we
got
the
bed.
Day
begins
on
a
positive
note." Sonu
had
recently
battled
COVID-19.
Following
his
recovery,
the
actor
had
posted
a
picture
himself
wearing
a
facemask
and
showing
negative
sign
with
his
fingers.
He
had
captioned
the
snap
as,
"Tested:
COVID-19
Negative."
