Actor
Sonu
Sood
is
all
set
to
organise
residential
accommodation
for
a
group
of
elderly
people
who
were
seen
mistreated
in
a
viral
video
on
social
media
recently.
The
video
showed
local
municipal
corporation
employees
mistreating
elderly
people
as
they
were
packed
in
a
bus
and
dumped
at
the
outskirts
of
Indore,
on
the
Indore-Dewas
highway.
The
video
spurred
an
uproar
on
social
media
and
netizens
expressed
their
anger
against
the
municipal
corporation
employees.
Now,
Sonu
Sood
is
extending
a
helping
hand
and
has
urged
Indore
residents
to
join
him
and
provide
a
safe
space
for
the
elderly.
He
also
hoped
this
serves
as
a
lesson
to
people
who
abandon
their
parents.
In
a
video
message,
Sood
said,
"Yesterday,
I
had
come
across
this
piece
of
news
where
the
elderly
were
ostracised
from
the
city
and
dumped
in
the
outskirts.
I
would
like
to
urge
my
brothers
and
sisters
from
Indore
to
come
together
and
work
towards
providing
a
roof
over
their
heads.
I
want
to
give
them
their
rights
back.
I
would
also
like
to
distribute
food
and
drinking
water
to
them.
All
this
will
be
difficult
to
achieve
without
your
help."
Asking
the
Indore
residents
to
set
an
example
he
added,
"This
should
be
a
lesson
to
all
the
children
out
there
who
have
left
their
aged
parents.
They
should
hold
them
close
and
take
care
of
them.
Dear
citizens
of
Indore,
let
us
come
together
and
set
an
example
so
that
the
elderly
are
never
left
to
feel
lonely
and
helpless."
According
to
reports,
Sonu
has
also
offered
to
build
houses
and
arrange
for
food,
water
and
other
essential
supplies
for
the
affected
elderly
in
the
region.
The
Bollywood
actor
emerged
as
a
messiah
during
the
lockdown
period
and
has
continued
his
philanthropic
work
since
early
2020.
