Global star Priyanka Chopra Jonas came in support of Sonu Sood’s appeal and not only lauded his efforts but also called him a visionary philanthropist. She shared a video on social media and said, “Have you heard of visionary philanthropists? My colleague @sonu_sood is one such. He thinks and plans ahead. Think this one out carefully because the impact is long-term and it involves children—amongst the many horror stories of the pandemic, this is regarding those children who have lost one or both parents due to COVID-19. The disruption, for many, sadly leads to a complete stop in their education due to the combination of loss and economic factors due to that loss”
