Pakistani Celebs Return to Instagram: Star Profiles Suddenly Go Active Again

Pakistan (The Uttam Hindu) : Pakistani actors Mawra Hussain, Saba Qamar, Yumna Zaidi, Ahad Raza Mir, and Danish Taimur's Instagram accounts have become accessible to Indian users again. However, prominent actors like Fawad Khan, Mahira Khan, Hania Aamir, and singer Atif Aslam remain blocked.

Blocked Accounts:

- Actors: Fawad Khan, Mahira Khan, Hania Aamir, Imran Abbas, Sajal Aly, Sanam Saeed, Bilal Abbas, and Iqra Aziz

- Singers: Atif Aslam

- Cricketers: Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and others

The blockage occurred after the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, which killed 26 people, including 25 Hindu tourists. India accused Pakistan of backing the militants involved, leading to increased tensions between the two countries.

Recent Developments:

- Some Pakistani celebrities' Instagram accounts have been restored in India, possibly due to technical changes or temporary relaxation in restrictions.

- The film industry has also been affected, with the release of "Sardaar Ji 3" starring Diljit Dosanjh and Hania Aamir being stopped in India.

- Harshvardhan Rane had previously stated that he wouldn't compromise on the country's honor, refusing to work on a project with Pakistani actors who made comments against India .
