Sonu Sood Says His Family Was Also Stuck For 4–5 Hours

On Saturday, December 6, Sonu shared a video, saying, "Mera khud ka parivaar travel kar raha tha aur unhe 4-5 ghante wait karna pada. Phir flight udi aur woh pohonch bhi gaye, lekin bohot saari flights udi hi nahi, cancel hui. Bohot log shaadiyan attend nahi kar paaye, meetings aur events cancel ho gaye. Sabko bohot takleef hui."

"Lekin dukh ki baat yeh thi ki airports par jitna bhi ground staff tha, log unpe kaise chilla rahe the. I know frustration hoti hai, dukh hota hai, aur gussa bhi nikalta hai. Lekin ek baar khud ko unki jagah imagine kijiye, unhe bhi nahi pata hota ki aage kya schedule hoga, flights udengi ya nahi. Upar se unhe jo messages milte hain, woh bas aap tak pass karte hain..."

Further, in the video, Sonu was heard saying, "Jis tarah logon ne react kiya, jis tarah jhagde hue, it is unfortunate. Yeh woh staff hai jo hum sab ka dhyaan rakhte hain. Humesha unke chehre par smiles hoti hain, chahe inflight crew ho ya on-ground crew. Woh humein escort karte hain, humara khayal rakhte hain. Toh humari bhi responsibility banti hai ki jab un par mushkil aaye, hum unka saath dein."

Sonu Sood Urges Flyers To Not Lose Calm

He stated that it is not the ground staff's mistake and, as responsible citizens, we must ensure we don't react in such a manner, since even they are helpless and don't have all the answers. Sonu urged passengers to keep their cool and control their anger, adding that the staff is simply doing their job, and it's our duty to help them keep smiling just as they greet people at the airport.
