Sonu Sood turns a year older today, but no party or celebration is in store for him. Instead, the Simmba actor, who is known for his physique and is also the Fit India Ambassador, is doing something that is health and fitness related. He is bringing in his 46th birthday by distributing free gym memberships to needy fitness enthusiasts in cities like Mumbai, Nagpur, Delhi and Punjab, to name a few.
Sonu says, “Lately, on my birthday every year, I try to gift a lot of gym memberships to people who can’t afford it. That word has spread, so people from different parts of the country approach me. I speak to the gym guys and get them memberships. It makes me happy when they send me pictures of themselves getting fitter, and a lot of their health problems healed. These are the things that give me a high and feel that I’m doing something good. I think a lot of people should do this. There is nothing more valuable than health. So, that’s what you should give to your friends.”
For the past five years, 80-100 people get the gym memberships on his birthday.
