Yesterday, 9th Sep 2024, he passed away. As an Indian, it is very hard to express the loss our country feels. Today, everyone is feeling the same as I am. He doesn’t need an introduction.

This is just my opinion — I got to know about his demise last night, and at that time, his Instagram followers were around 9 Million. But this morning, his followers are around 10 Million. I don’t have a screenshot of the old count, but it’s sad that 1 Million people started following him after his demise. I know counting followers is such a petty thing, but my thought is that after someone passes away, we as humans realize their existence. That’s my point, nothing else.
Sadly, I have seen similar behavior with other famous celebrities as well — people start following them on social media after their demise.
May God rest his soul in peace.
