Gurmeet and his wife Debina Bannerjee had tested positive for the coronavirus in September 2020. Recently, the actor had shared that after being inspired by Sonu Sood’s humanitarian work during the pandemic, he too wants to help people as the country deals with the second wave of the pandemic.
Debina too had taken to her social media platforms to appeal to all that people who have recovered from Covid-19 should donate plasma for the treatment of patients who are severely ill due to the virus, she too has donated plasma.
As India continues to record an alarming rise in the daily number of active cases every passing day, many actors like Akshay Kumar, Swara Bhaskar Bhumi Pednekar, Sonam Kapoor have come forward to extend help. While Akshay has donated money to the Gautam Gambhir Foundation to feed the needy people, Bhumi Pednekar has appealed to people to donate plasma, Swara Bhaskar and Sonam Kapoor, who is in London at the moment, has been sharing collated resources on her social media platforms for people to visit in case of need.
Sonu Sood who tested negative for Covid-19 on Friday has continued his benevolent work in helping the migrant workers and Covid-19 patients find necessary medicines, etc.
The actor recently also airlifted a critically ill Covid-19 patient, from Nagpur to Hyderabad, to get the special treatment done in the hospital.
