Talking about it, Sonu said, "I am extremely humbled and grateful. I feel fortunate that I received the opportunity to help whoever was in need. And now that such a big institute has honoured my actions, I will only be motivated to keep being there for those who need me."

We hear that this is just the beginning as many other universities will be honouring him for his noble deeds and will be teaching their students about his philanthropic services so that they learn about the value of goodness and helping each other. 

A while back, the actor had come up with a scholarship programme in his mother's honour to support IAS aspirants fulfil their dreams and reach their goals.
