Mumbai: Actor Sonu Sood had earlier announced that he was writing a book recounting his experience of helping migrant workers during the COVID-19 lockdown. Well it seems that the writing is finally over as Sonu Sood has now revealed the book’s title. It will be titled ‘I Am No Messiah’ and the book will be written in first person. The book will reveal the emotional challenges the actor faced while extending help.
“People have been very kind and have lovingly named me messiah. But I really do believe that I am no messiah. I simply do what my heart tells me to. It is our responsibility as human beings to be compassionate and help each other,” Sonu said Wednesday.
The book co-written by Meena Iyer, is expected to be out in December. “I want to thank god for making me a catalyst in helping the migrants. While my heart beats in Mumbai, after this movement I feel a part of me lives in the villages of UP, Bihar, Jharkhand, Assam, Uttarakhand, Odisha and various other states. I have now found new friends in these places and made deep connections. I have decided to put these experiences and stories that are embedded in my soul forever, in a book,” Sonu had previously said.
It should be stated here that Sonu had booked entire aircraft on a number of occasions to help migrant workers return to their native places. Not only flights, he had booked train compartments as well as buses. If sources are to be believed then Sonu has helped more than 50,000 persons return to their respective homes.
