well-known people who have just lost their blue tick on Twitter after Elon Musk

month after declaring that users of the microblogging site would have to
purchase a Twitter Blue subscription, the firm removed the historic verified
blue checkmarks from accounts that included celebrities, businesses, and
athletes, among others.

celebrities, including Amitabh Bachchan, were disappointed when they learned
the blue tick next to their name was vanished. Among them is Anupam Mittal, who
discovered that his account was no longer "verified." While
the blue tick was reinstated for select Twitter accounts, including those of
late celebrities, the Shaadi.com founder's account was not one of them.

lose Blue Tick
Many
high-profile celebrities, including Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, and Alia
Bhatt, as well as politicians such as CM Yogi Adityanath, Rahul Gandhi, and
Priyanka Gandhi, and cricketers Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, lost their
verified blue ticks following Twitter's decision.
Elon
Musk then restored the badge for users with over a million followers and even
stated that he was personally paying for some celebrities' Twitter Blue
subscriptions in order for them to keep their checkmarks. Basketball player
LeBron James, Star Trek actor William Shatner, and author Stephen King were
among those honoured. According to the company's new policy, consumers must pay
$8 per month for the badge.
Some
celebrities, though, have paid for the subscription. Amitabh Bachchan, the
actor, said that despite paying the costs, his blue tick vanished. In a tweet,
he asked 'Twitter bhaiya' to restore his blue tick so that people know his
account is legitimate. The great actor also stated that he makes the request
with his palms folded. His Blue Tick was eventually restored.
