Actor Sonu Sood, who earned a huge fan base for his philanthropic work amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, has recently received a heartfelt tribute from mountaineer and cyclist Uma Singh. Reportedly, Uma Singh conquered Africa's tallest peak Mt. Kilimanjaro on a cycle and dedicated his win to none other than Sonu.

"For the first time in my life I have met a real-life hero and I want to do something for him. He stood up for our country in difficult circumstances, regardless of his own life. You are the real hero of our country, Sonu Sood sir, and the elder brother to everyone in India," Uma said in a statement. Sonu is extremely touched by the mountaineer's gesture.
