In a video posted on social media, Sonu Sood says, "hum log tweet karte hain, shok dikhate hain fir apni zindagi mein busy ho jate hain"
"(we tweet and express grief and then get busy with our lives). But what about all those people who had left home to earn livelihood in another city, many families have vanished, will they ever be able to stand up again. Compensations milenge jo 2-4 mahine me khatam ho jayenge (compensations will be granted and will be spent in some time)."

"Imagine the one who would have lost a leg or has a broken shoulder, will he ever be able to work again? These are all the breadwinners of the family. I feel the government is working very well for them but I feel they should bring a policy for the victims of such tragic accidents. Like the system of pensions, a fixed income should be ensured for such families."
Heartbroken by the news of the train tragedy in Odisha. Heartfelt deepest condolences ??

He says that whatever compensation they get won't last for long and no compensation can ever fill the loss of life. I ask everyone to do something for them, the state governments, the central government should form certain kinds of policies which sets an example for the future."
He added, "Sirf social media par dukh dikhane se kuch nahi hoga. Ek relief fund ikaththa hona chaiye."
