Many people admired Bollywood actor Sonu Sood for his philanthropic work in helping migrants to return home during the first and second waves of the pandemic. He often hits headlines due to his humanitarian nature. During the Covid, netizens around the country praised him for helping labourers, the homeless, the hungry, and the elderly.

From sand artists to painters, many individuals have paid respect to Sonu Sood and praised him for helping the needy and underprivileged. Soldiers recently paid tribute to the actor on Republic Day. He is now frequently seen inaugurating new business outlets of his fans.

The actor was present and posed for pictures at Hyderabad's Gismat Jail Mandi restaurant. The thali, which can serve 20 people at a time, is named after the actor. Sood posted on Instagram, "India's Biggest Plate" is now named after me while posing with the thali, which was laden with non-vegetarian foods and biryani. "Being a vegetarian guy who eats little food can’t have a plate on his name that caters to 20 people at a time. Humbled.”

The actor's post shows that he is overjoyed that he was able to launch the world's biggest non-veg plate. The plate named after him supposedly serves 20 people and is 8 feet long.

Several netizens were upset by Sood's endorsement of non-vegetarian cuisine despite the fact that he is a vegetarian.

Sood's post, which was shared one day ago, has gotten over 13 lakh likes. The restaurant also posted the photo on Instagram with a caption stating, “Sir you have the biggest heart and we cannot find a better name for the plate sir. Truly humbled and happy to have you in Hyderabad and your presence is still here thank you for creating that massive positive aura in GISMAT JAIL MANDI. Thank you to our customers for making the event and plate a massive success.”
