SRK to Virat Kohli: Celebrities are losing Twitter Blue Tick

The legacy verified blue ticks have all been removed by Twitter from all of the accounts that previously possessed them.
Amitabh Bachchan, Virat Kohli, and Shah Rukh Khan are among those who lost the blue tick.
Only individuals with active Twitter Blue subscriptions—which cost $8 monthly on the web and $11 monthly on the mobile app—retain ownership of the verified blue tick.
Among those whose Twitter profiles no longer display the verified blue tick are actors Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, and Alia Bhatt, politicians Yogi Adityanath, Rahul Gandhi, and Priyanka Gandhi, and cricketers Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.
Twitter previously declared that it would eliminate the blue tick from accounts that are deemed to be "notable." However, following Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter, famous people and everyone else considered to be notable had to sign up for Twitter Blue in order to maintain their verified blue ticks.
Since Twitter changed its verification procedure, impersonation of famous people are now possible. Starting April 1, users who don't sign up for Twitter Blue would lose the verified checkmark on their accounts, Twitter had warned.
"To keep your blue checkmark on Twitter, people can sign up for Twitter Blue," the firm stated on its website.
In order to assist users in recognising celebrities, politicians, businesses, and brands as well as authentic stories of public interests, the "Blue tick," which had not previously required payment, was added in 2009.
But two weeks after the firm was taken over, Musk introduced the "Twitter Blue" membership package, which included the verified ticks as extras.
Removing the blue checks from users that don't pay the monthly fee appears to be something Twitter has finally started doing.
