“Why Happened To Blue Tick?” Fans Question Why Shah Rukh Khan Doesn’t Have A Verified Twitter Account!
But he wasn't paying for it, guys!
Microblogging platform Twitter has been going through ups and downs ever since Tesla owner Elon Musk took over the platform. Musk shattered all dreams of people having a verified account after he made the blue tick on the microblogging platform a subscription-based thing which means anyone and everyone can get a blue tick by paying a monthly subscription fee. While this did not apply to certain celebs, it looks like things might have changed because Shah Rukh Khan has officially lost the blue tick on Twitter.

Yes, you read that right. The Badshah of Bollywood no longer has a blue tick next to his profile on the social media platform. Here’s proof!
X users (earlier Twitter), took note of it earlier on August 15 when the actor switched his DP to the Indian flag. Fans just cannot handle the fact that the superstar is no longer verified on the microblogging platform. Internet users were quick to notice that the actor doesn’t have a blue tick on his profile and questioned why is that.

While several users questioned what went wrong, others expressed pride that the actor stopped paying for the blue tick. Some even guessed that perhaps the actor forgot to pay for the blue tick.

Many users came up with a conspiracy theory that Shah Rukh Khan lost his verified account status on the Elon Musk-owned microblogging platform because he changed his display picture to that of the Indian flag.

Did Shah Rukh Khan Stop Paying For Blue Tick On Twitter (Now X)?
FYI, all those who think SRK was paying for the blue tick on Twitter, allow us to debunk the myth for you. In April this year, Twitter removed all blue tick badges from profiles who did not subscribe to it. However, soon after several celebs lost their verified badges, Twitter returned it to all the accounts with over 1 million followers for free which included Indian celebs like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone and more without them having to pay for it.
If reports are to be believed, Twitter is removing verified badges from accounts that change their display picture. As per the guidelines shared by the microblogging platform, verified users much keep their profile name and display picture authentic and any change will lead to the removal of the verified badge until the team can review it and make the concerned change.
