Actor Sonu Sood has been at the forefront of relief efforts as he sends migrants to their homes amid coronavirus pandemic. The actor has received accolades from politicians, celebs and common people alike and has also fielded some bizarre requests on social media with aplomb and humour.

After being asked if he can help people visit a beauty parlour and a liquor shop, he now got a request from a little girl who seems to be speaking on her father's behalf. "Sonu Uncle... I've heard you are sending people home. So, Papa is asking, will you be able to send Mumma to Nani house? Let me know," the child winks as she ends her video message.

The video was shared with the caption, "Very Very Urgent Demand @SonuSood ,So Kindly Notice And Please Fulfill The Same !!!!" Replying in the same vein, Sonu wrote, "Now this is something very challenging. Will try my best."
