Actor and philanthropist Sonu Sood recently had a tussle with the income tax department for an alleged tax evasion of around 20 crore rupees. The raid on Sonu's house went on for around fours days and it was reported that the actor provided all the required documents to the authorities. Netizens were polarised on this matter as there were few who were criticising Sonu for being a fraud and a large fraction of people were supporting him.

Although Sonu got enough support from his fans, he got none of it from his peers and fellow celebs. In a recent conversation with Times Now, Sonu shared that he wasn't surprised on not getting support from his co-stars. He said, "Who will come to support when guests are sitting at your house. Whenever the guests come, no one from the industry is going to come. People do listen and they feel. You don’t know how many of them would stand with you. But one would think about this if one is expecting people to come out in support and shout slogans for you."

The actor continued, "I never expected anything and therefore no one came out to support me. Also, I don’t think people bother to support or raise their voice for anybody who might be in trouble with the authorities. Or why a person is being harassed? I don’t think anyone has ever raised a voice in such a situation. I think the world is still the same and we have always been a part of it.”
