World Health Day 2026: Sonu Sood Launches ‘Ab Rukna Nahi’ Knee Replacement Surgery Program

Marking the occasion of World Health Day, real-life hero Sonu Sood has announced a deeply meaningful healthcare initiative, "Ab Rukna Nahi," reinforcing his belief that health and well-being should be a priority every single day of the year.

Speaking about the significance of the day at India 2030 Leadership Conclave, Sonu Sood shared, "We celebrate this World Health Day every single day, all 365 days a year. It's not that you can decide that today is World Health Day, so we have to eat right or we have to preach right. So I think it's very important to follow a disciplined routine all your life that will help you do whatever you want to do." With this philosophy at its core, the actor is launching a large-scale knee replacement surgery program aimed at helping those who cannot afford treatment. Highlighting the emotional essence behind the campaign, Sonu added, "On World Health Day, we are also launching this knee replacement surgery. It's a huge program that we are coming up with. It's called Ab Rukna Nahi. You know, because a lot of people, old parents, they avoid getting those surgeries done. They are not able to mobilize themselves."

He further shared a heartfelt thought that defines the spirit of the initiative, "Your parents who taught you how to walk, when they can't walk, it becomes our responsibility to teach them how to walk. So I think that's one of the very, very special programs which is very close to my heart."

With "Ab Rukna Nahi," Sonu Sood once again turns compassion into action, reminding everyone that true care begins with ensuring no one is left behind.
