Jannat Mirza says she was relieved after TikTok ban in Pakistan was lifted
Pakistan most-followed TikToker Jannat Mirza on Thursday said she was relieved after a ban imposed on video-sharing app TikTok was lifted.
Coincidentally, Mirza had amassed 10 million followers on the video-sharing app only a day before the ban.
Mirza has captioned her latest Instagram post as: “Bachpan me akele rehne se dar lagta the .. Aaj us akelepan me sakoon milta hai [In my childhood, I felt afraid of being alone, however, now I find peace in this solitude].”
To which, a fan replied: “We were afraid of the dark in childhood, now there is peace in this darkness”, with Mirza responding: “JBH [Absolutely].”
TikTok had been banned in Pakistan on October 9 after Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) received complaints against it.
