Bollywood actor Sonu Sood, in a recent interview with Hindustan Times, spoke of what it feels like working in an industry when star kids get more precedence.
Having completed 15 years in the industry, mostly known for supporting roles to now negative or action ones, he said that as an outsider not many are keen on meeting or conversing.
“People have even said that there are thousands of Sonu Soods out there, and they don’t have time to cater to each one of them. There have been films where this happened, that things were almost finalised with me, and then I saw new names popping up, but I was always ready for that,” he confessed.

He even spoke of how difficult it was for him to make it in the industry. “Millions of people come every day to Mumbai to fulfill their acting dreams. Being one of them is always tough. Staying with 6-7 people in a paying guest accommodation together, and then finally coming up in life… it’s difficult,” he said.
The actor is turning producer soon with badminton player PV Sindhu’s biopic. The actor, who believes in hard work, will soon be seen playing Arjuna from the Indian epic Mahabharata in a Kannada film titled Kurukshetra, possibly directed by Naganna.
