Since last few days, actor Sonu Sood has been under investigation for a an alleged tax evasion of around 20 crore rupees. Income Tax Department claimed that they found evidence during their searches that founds Sonu guilty. Sonu has finally broken his silence on the matter and tried to explain his side of the story through a tweet.

Investigations proved that Sonu raised around 19 crore rupees through crowdfunding but only 1.9 crore of it was put to use in humanitarian work. Sonu explained in his tweet, "Every rupee in my foundation is awaiting its turn to save a precious life and reach the needy. In addition, on many occasions, I have encouraged brands to donate my endorsement fees for humanitarian causes too, which keeps us going."

Taking a dig at the income tax raid, Sonu said, "I have been busy attending to a few guests hence was unable to be at your service for the last four days. Here I am back again in all humility. At your humble service, for life." Sonu Sood became a messiah for thousands of people after he came out to help them amidst the pandemic. He started out by helping stranded migrant labours and then went on to provide medical aid to the needy.
