TikTok ban: Malaika Arora says ‘best news I heard in lockdown

The ban on video sharing platform TikTok in India has been met with mixed reactions in Bollywood. While some celebrities are wondering about the significance of the ban, many have hailed the government for the decision.
TikTok, owned by China’s ByteDance, was among the 59 Chinese mobile apps banned on Monday by the Indian government. The Indian ministry of information technology said that the apps “are engaged in activities… prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order”. There are estimated to be about 120 million TikTok users in India, with many Bollywood celebs present on the platform too.
Among those reacted to the ban was Malaika Arora. Sharing a picture on her Instagram stories that shows the news of TikTok ban flashing on a TV screen, she wrote, “Best news I have heard in lockdown…finally we will not be subjected to people’s ridiculous videos.”
