In this special report, reporter Sana Farzeem provides details on the recovery of Indian cricketer Virat Kohli’s Instagram account. The account, which boasts more than 274 million followers, temporarily disappeared overnight, causing ‘absolute madness and panic’ among fans who discovered the profile was unavailable. Farzeem commented that “it was shocking when we saw his account was deactivated late last night” and mentioned that fans even reached out to Anushka Sharma’s profile for updates. While the account is now fully restored with all posts and followers intact, the exact cause remains unconfirmed. The program is discussing whether the disappearance was due to a technical glitch, security concerns or platform guidelines, as neither Meta nor Kohli have released any official statements. The report highlights Kohli’s massive influence as the most followed Indian on the platform and the relief felt by his global fan base at the return of the account.
