Indian Hollywood stars have been called heroes during the epidemic

Just as some Indian Hollywood stars and rich people fled India for vacation when the epidemic was out of control, the actor Sonu Sud (pictured) has won praise as a national hero since last year, providing people with medical expenses and assisting in obtaining hospital beds.

India's second wave of the new crown epidemic due to the government's disregard for police signals and the general non-compliance with the rules of the public, law enforcement officers only care about bribery and failed to enforce the law and lose control, triggering the collapse of the medical system, whether rich or poor can not get a bed, or have to go to the black market at high prices to buy drugs and oxygen cylinders, many rich and Hollywood stars have chartered flights to flee.

Recently, Hollywood beauty stars such as Disha Patani, Sara Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor have shared swimsuit photos and food photos of resorts on social media, triggering criticism from Indian netizens.

Still, there are hollywood stars who do good in India during the hardships of covid-19.

Since last year's pandemic, Hollywood actor Sonu Sood has worked hard to respond to fans through social media, doing her best to assist them with medical and homecoming needs, including paying for students stranded overseas or in other provinces and migrant workers to return home, and subsidizing medical expenses for those in need.

In the face of the rapid deterioration of the second wave of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in India, the collapse of the medical system, and the lack of medical resources such as oxygen, respirators, medicines and beds in hospitals around the world, Sonu Sud also actively helps people find beds and oxygen cylinders.

Sonu Sud said in a tweet, "Late at night, if, after countless phone calls, you can find a hospital bed for someone who needs it; for some people, oxygen can save a few lives, I swear it's a hundred times more satisfying than any Rs 1 billion movie." We couldn't sleep when people were waiting for beds in front of hospital doors. ”

After receiving the first dose of the vaccine on the 7th, Sonu Sud also repeatedly called on the government to vaccinate young people under the age of 25 on social media, and also launched the "Sanjeevani: A Shot of Life" campaign, calling on people to be vaccinated to help control the epidemic.

The Indian people praised Sonu Sud for his kindness enough to become a national hero, and Sonu Sud said in an interview, "I don't know how to deal with it, I don't consider myself a national hero." At first, I was just worried about the plight of migrant workers who couldn't return home. I was touched by the influx of love and blessings for me, but I was just doing what I thought I could, and everyone should do it... I urge others to do the same. ”

The 47-year-old Sonu Sud, who has played a variety of roles as an actor, producer, model and philanthropist, has participated in many films in various languages across India, and has also participated in the film "Kung Fu Yoga" starring Jackie Chan, and was awarded the "Special Humanitarian Action Award" by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) for his humanitarian work during the COVID-19 epidemic last year.

In addition to Sonu Sud, Priyanka Chopra, another actress who is active from Hollywood in India to Hollywood in the United States, is recently seeking a vaccine supply for India.

However, some Indian netizens left a message under the official Twitter account of The Piyan Card, saying that in addition to the vaccine, the Indian people now need oxygen, beds, oxygen machines, etc., calling on the Piyan Card to shift its energy from the vaccine to the current demand.

Piyanka replied that yes, India needs the tools mentioned above to save lives, but the only way to stop the spread of the virus in India is to build herd immunity through vaccination.
