Actor-filmmaker-activist Sonu Sood, who made a huge impact as a philanthropist during the COVID endemic, is ready to direct a new film—this time based on Bihar’s socio-political scenario.
Speaking exclusively about the project, Sonu Sood said, “I have just finished writing the film. Besides playing the lead, I will be directing the film also. So, it’s an action film. I will for sure announce it in a big way since Bihar is a state very close to my heart. I have grown up in Bihar and I have studied the state’s dynamics from close quarters.”
However, Sonu is not keen on making a documentary-like political drama. “I’ve chosen the world of Bihar this time for its dramatic potential, and it’s going to be definitely an action film. Something that we all will be proud of. We have already been working for the past 7-8 months on the detailing of the film. Now, I will come up with a big announcement very, very soon and obviously, I am going to call you first.”
Sonu’s last directorial venture was the gritty action film *Fateh*. He has his own unique perspective on a film’s viability and the audience.
“Sir, I don’t look at cinema as only a money-making machine. Of course, I want my films to do well. Who doesn’t want success? But for me, the public is not just an audience for my film. They are my extended family. Bahot gehra rishta hai hamara unke saath. I don’t look at them as a profit-making machine,” he shared.
During the COVID pandemic, Sonu Sood helped thousands of people with transportation to their homes, medicines, oxygen, emergency surgeries, financial assistance, education, and more—cementing his reputation as a true humanitarian.
