Sonu Sood has tirelessly been working for migrant workers, frontline staff, and those from underprivileged backgrounds amidst the on-going coronavirus pandemic.
A while back, he had come up with an initiative, affiliated with a university, to sponsor the education for students across different parts of the country. It was inspired by his late mother, Prof. Saroj Sood, who used to teach students on a non-commercial basis and today, on his mother’s 13th death anniversary, Sood intends to carry the legacy created by her forward.
Sonu Sood has come up with a scholarship program called Prof. Saroj Sood scholarships to support IAS aspirants to fulfill their dreams and reach their goals. Under the program, scholarships will be available to students for online and on-campus courses.
Taking to Twitter, the actor-philanthropist shared, "October 13; 13 years since My Mother passed. She left behind a legacy of Education. On her anniversary today, I pledge to support IAS aspirants to reach their goals thru Prof Saroj Sood Scholarships. Seeking blessings Miss u maa. @scholify_me."
Sometime back, he had helped the students of a village in Haryana so that they could attend online classes by sending smartphones to them. Sood had also helped JEE and NEET examination aspirants to travel to their exam centers. His selfless actions continue to be a source of inspiration to many across the country.
In July this year, Sonu had shared a throwback picture for his mother’s birth anniversary. "Happy birthday Maa...just keep guiding me always the way you have been doing all my life. Wish I could give you a tight hug and tell you how much I love you..but I am sure you must be missing us where ever you are. Life will never be the same but be my guiding angel always till I see you again maa. Miss you."
