Well, although there are several actors I admire. But uh, if I have to choose only one person, then I will mention Mister Sonu Shud, who I admire the most. He is a uh, quite a great person. He is having a quite great personality. He is a south indian actor. And uh, often acting, often uh, participate in so many south indian movies as a villain. But in real life he is the hero. And how he became a real life hero, that uh, I have to tell you that I have to explain now. During COVID lockdown period where all the transportation were stopped and uh, there were so many immigrants, workers all across the country seeking for help. And uh, at that time, Mister Sonuud who arranged so many buses, those are of course private buses so that those workers can go to their native places. And they. He also have supported with some amount of funds for them so that uh, they can have their food during their journey. And that news was not so viral at that time, but uh, when it came to the notice of media, when it came to notice about. For the media that time, it uh, was the viral news for. On all social media platforms. And uh, people even call him God. Even though not only helping that lockdown period but also he has, he had joined with so many NgO’s those are working currently with women empowerment and uh, child labor act. There are so many of them. And most of his earning earnings he donate for this charity. And I believe in real life such kind of personality is very essential for every individuals. In the end, I believe there’s only one personality that I have mentioned. But uh, there are another personalities, are there, but they are not so much involved in public welfare and uh, maybe that’s the reason why they are not so much popular.

Well, although there are several actors I admire, if I have to choose just one, it would be Sonu Sood. He's a truly remarkable person with a great personality. He's a South Indian actor who often plays villains in South Indian films. But in real life, he's a hero. Let me tell you why. During the COVID-19 lockdown, when all transportation was shut down and many migrant workers were stranded across the country, Sonu Sood stepped up. He arranged for private buses to transport these workers back to their hometowns. He also provided them with financial assistance for food during their journey. This act of kindness wasn't widely publicized at first, but when it came to the attention of the media, it went viral on social media platforms. People even started calling him a god. Beyond his efforts during the lockdown, Sonu Sood has also been actively involved with various NGOs working on women's empowerment and child labor issues. He donates a significant portion of his earnings to these charities. I believe that such genuine personalities are essential in our world. While I've highlighted Sonu Sood, there are other actors who are admirable, but perhaps they aren't as publicly involved in social welfare, which might be why they aren't as well-known.
