Sonu Sood Seeks Blessings At Shirdi Ahead Of ‘Fateh’ Release

The actor shared his spiritual journey on social media. In the pictures surfaced online, Sonu is seen standing with folded hands at the sacred Shirdi temple, deeply immersed in prayer. Prior to this, he paid his respects at the Golden Temple in Amritsar.

“Fateh” marks Sonu Sood's directorial debut and also stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Naseeruddin Shah, and Vijay Raaz.

In an exclusive interview with IANS, the actor shared how playing the role of an ordinary man with hidden strength and determination provided him with a fresh outlook on personal growth and self-confidence.

Sonu shared,“I think Fateh was my dream role, one that I always wanted to play: a common man who has a superhero inside him. I believe every individual, every common man, has a superhero within them. You just need to discover that. I'm glad that with Fateh, I was able to discover that side of myself. And I hope that when people watch it, they not only get entertained by the script but also get inspired.”

When asked what Fateh means to him, the 'Simmba' actor stated,“I think when you can be someone's hope, it's not about how rich, famous, or influential you are. We are all those things, but sometimes, when someone becomes a hope, a person leaves their native village in Punjab or Uttar Pradesh with the belief that when they reach out to an individual, their life will change. I think that is true Fateh-when you can change someone's life, that's what real Fateh is.”

Produced by Umesh KR Bansal of Zee Studios and Sonali Sood of Shakti Sagar Productions, co-produced by Ajay Dhama, Fateh, a gripping tale of courage, resilience, and the fight against cybercrime is slated to release on January 10.
