Sonu Sood posted the video on April 29, 2021, urging fans to support those who have lost loved ones during the pandemic. Especially, those children who lost their parents and were financially dependent on them. "I always think about their future, which is very important", he said. "I would like to request the Government, be it State Government or the Central Government or any institution who would like to help, to consider funding the education of these students".

He added that the students deserve to get an education regardless of their current level of studies or choice of institution, "The children's education right from school to college, whether they study in public or private schools, their education should be totally free of cost". "Whether they want to study in their preferred field of education, even if its engineering, medical or any course, their education should be free of cost". "This must be made into a rule so that all the families and children who have lost their parents due to COVID can have a safe future", he said. Sood signed off the video by once again requesting influential people to raise their voice and make the education of kids, orphaned due to COVID, totally free.
