Sonu Sood mourns death of Covid patient he got airlifted to Hyderabad for treatment; says, ‘Life is genuinely unfair at times’

Sonu Sood took to social media to share an emotional note after a 25-year-old Covid patient died. Bharti was a critically ill Covid-19 patient whom the actor got airlifted in an air-ambulance from Nagpur to Hyderabad for special treatment last month. Bharti had lost almost 85-90 per cent of her lungs due to the virus. With Sonu’s help, Bharti had been shifted to Apollo Hospital in Hyderabad, where she breathed her last. Mourning her death, Sonu wrote that life is genuinely unfair at times.

Taking to Instagram, Sonu shared a post that read, “Bharti, a young girl from Nagpur whom I airlifted on an air ambulance to Hyderabad passed away last night. Rest In Power My Dear Bharti. You fought the last month like a complete tigress on an Ecmo machine. Even though i never met you, you’ll always hold a very special place in my heart. My condolences to her entire family, I’m going to meet them very soon. life is genuinely unfair at times. ‘will miss you bharti’ (sic).” The actor wrote in the caption, “This world will always miss you (sic).”
