Actor Sonu Sood, who celebrated his 47th birthday on Thursday, occupied a spot on the list of trends on Friday after he shared a major blast from the past. The actor shared a photo of himself from 1997 - he came to Mumbai to become an actor around the same time but more on that later. The photograph features Sonu Sood, who is now one of the fittest actors of Bollywood, sporting a lean look. He can be seen wearing a denim shirt and jeans. Going by the throwback and Sonu Sood's recent photos, it can be said that the actor has undergone major physical transformation since the time he started his journey in the entertainment industry.
