Dear student
While in case of sulphur dioxide, its has some value of dipole moment because, the dipole moments of the two oxygens doesn't cancel out as the sulphur has a lone pair of electron as a result of which the structures acquires a bent shape resulting in non-cancellation of dipole moment, hence a polar molecule.
