HYDERABAD: Unable to digest
Sonu Sood being thrashed in a
film
by the hero, a seven-year-old boy reacted with anger and broke the television set at home in Nyalkal village in Sangareddy district.
The family was watching the movie ‘Dhookudu’ starring Mahesh Babu. Sonu Sood plays a negative role in the movie like in almost all his films. The film was being aired on a
Telugu
channel on July 12 when the boy, along with his relatives sat in the room watching it.
When hero Mahesh Babu starts to thrash ‘villain’ Sonu Sood in the movie, the boy got up and pushed the television set, which got damaged. “How dare he beat up Sonu Sood. It is not acceptable to me and I will not tolerate it,” the boy responded his when his uncle Ashok Kumar questioned him about damaging the TV.
Ashok told TOI on Tuesday that he asked his nephew what he knew about Sonu Sood that he was not able to tolerate seeing him being thrashed in a film. “Did he not help people during
lockdown
?” the boy responded with the answer.
