In his note, Kushal Tandon wrote that while the whole world is f****d because of China b****, but still guess what are Indians and many others are giving them – the revenue from s*** TikTok. He added that while China made TikTok for people who were useless and who had nothing to do, and look at us all, everyone is on TikTok. Ban TikTok, he wrote. He concluded by saying that he is proud of never using the app.

His post received overwhelming response from fans as nearly 33000 people gave it a thumbs up withing a couple of hours. However, Tandon disabled the comments section a few hours after sharing the post on his account.

Meanwhile, TV actor Vivek Dahiya has no issue with TikTok. He even shared a note about why banning the app has nothing to do with the Coronavirus pandemic which has claimed lakhs of lives across the world so far.

In his note on Instagram, he wrote that when he was asked to ban/quit using TikTok because it is “Made in China”, this note answers that and beyond.

The popularity of TikTok cannot be denied in India. It has been downloaded over 1.5 billion times in the country. Not just the common man, several high-profile celebrities are also active on the Chinese app.
