Amitabh Bachchan: Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan has come out with a hilarious tweet after losing his blue tick verification on Twitter. The actor, who is quite active on Twitter, asked what else can he do now to ensure that he is verified. He asks if he should fold his knees too after folding his hands!
Big B wrote on Friday, “T 4623 – Ae Twitter bhaiya! Sun rahe he? Ab to paisa bhi bhar diye hein hum… toh ou jo neel kamal (green tick emoticon) hot he na, hamar naam ke aagey, u toh vapas lagaye de bhaiya, taaki log jaan jaaye ki hum hi hein- Amitabh Bachchan… haath toh jor liye he hum, Ab ka godwa jode padi ka??” (Oh Twitter brother? Now I have paid the money too… so that blue mark is there, right? Put it back brother, so that people know that I am the real Amitabh Bachchan… I am here with folded hands. Now, shall I fold my knees too?)
Celebrities lose the blue tick
To recall, Twitter owner and CEO Elon Musk on April 11 had said that Twitter users will lose the legacy blue check marks from April 20. Ever since this came into effect, many celebrities lost their verification check. Some of them took to Twitter to share hilarious reactions. Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan’s tweet was quite funny.
Twitter removed the legacy verified blue ticks from all accounts and the only individual Twitter users with verified blue checkmarks are the ones paying for Twitter Blue – a monthly subscription of ₹650-700.
Apart from Big B, several other stars like Vir Das, Nargis Fakri, Prakash Raj and Ravi Kishan also tweeted after they lost their blue tick verification.
Vir Das is ok with someone impersonating him
“I like this world. To verify an artist, buy tickets, not ticks…Bye blue tick. I’m okay with someone impersonating me on twitter. You deal with the things they call me… How about this? If you like what I’m saying…it’s the real me. If you’re pissed off/offended/looking to take action/going to complain to some sort of metaphorical papa… this account belongs to an unverified impersonator. Cool?” tweeted Vir Das.
Many others Bollywood stars, including Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt have also lost their verified blue ticks from their Twitter accounts.
