Sonu also reveals that when he decided to venture out, people advised him not to leave Bollywood. The Singh is Kinng actor further reveals that he has rejected Bollywood offers for the south. “Puchte the bahut log ki tujhe Bollywood ke offers aate hai, tu South ka karta hai. But for me it was not about the language, it’s about where you find the happy space and South was something that was getting the best for me. Because I was working down South, I had the guts to say no to best of Bollywood saying, ‘main karunga toh acha karunga, warna nahi karunga’.” Fateh is currently streaming in cinemas near you, and its facing stiff competition from Ram Charan’s Game Changer.
