Sonu Sood trolled for comparing Muslim vendor to 'Shabri' from Ramayana, Memes trend on X
Wondering what reference Sonu Sood made? The actor compared the man in question to Shabri, a devotee who, according to Hindu mythology, made Lord Ram eat berries, which she had tasted first. Shabari in the Hindu epic Ramayana is described as an elderly woman ascetic. She is defined as an ardently devoted woman who received Lord Rama's blessing due to her bhakti towards him.
Bollywood actor Sonu Sood is in the news again, but not for his usual acts of kindness. Sonu is being bullied for his strange remark this time, which a section of people did not like on the internet. The actor, who is known for his social service, was defending a food vendor for spitting on rotis (chapatis) while making them. Immediately after the actor defended the man, he started facing strong backlash from people. What triggered the netizens the most was that he made a reference to Hindu mythology to support the man in question. X (former Twitter) users made memes on Sonu to troll him.
