Sonu's performance has been so appreciated that even the powers that be in his hometown, Moga, called him up to say how proud they are of him.
And a paper like the prestigious The Tribune came out with the headline "King Of Moga". It so happened that the people of Moga (Sonu's hometown) insisited that Sonu's father organise a special screening of the film. So a special screening was held at the very college campus from where Sonu had graduated.
The people were so happy watching him play a King in the film that they started dancing with happiness. The very next day Punjab Tribune came out with the huge headline "KING OF MOGA". And to Sonu's surprise the MP of Moga immediately called him to say that inspite of being the one in power no paper has ever come out with such a headline for him.
"I must say that you are the real king here who has made all of us so proud that the people have come up with such a headline for you, " said the MP.
Not just this, people there are so proud of Sonu that there are many small incidents of their affection showing through their gestures. Like the owner of a jewellery shop who has even framed one of Sonu's pictures and is displaying it proudly at his shop! Now, that's what we call fan following!
