On Thursday night, the Twitter blue tick from most individuals and organisations disappeared. The only individual Twitter users who have verified blue checkmarks are those paying for Twitter Blue, which costs USD 8/month via the web and USD 11/month through in-app payment on iOS and Android. Several Bollywood celebrities including Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and others lost their blue tick on the micro-blogging site. 

After losing their blue tick, some of the actors took to their social media handle to react to the new policy change on Twitter. Shahid Kapoor, too, joked abut the blue tick disappearing from his handle. He channeled his inner Kabir Singh(his 2019 hit film) while reacting to the new policy. "Mere blue tick ko kisne touch kiya... Elon, tu wahi ruk main aaraha hu ( who touched my blue tick...Elon (Musk), you stay there, I am coming)." He tweaked the dialogue from his 2019 hit Kabir Singh and added, "Haha."
