Amitabh Bachchan says he paid for Twitter blue tick, Celina Jaitly schools Elon Musk

Amitabh Bachchan recently took to Twitter to shed light on how the microblogging site's policies had made it mandatory for celebrites to pay for 114 Euros in order to retain the legacy blue tick, which is a mark of authenticity. However, later, Big B shared that after he had paid the money to get his account re-verified, they are now providing those with over million followers blue ticks without any additional cost. The Twitter blue tick has been a raging debate on social media for a few days now.

Big B wrote in Bhojpuri, “I paid the money,  but now you claim that anyone who has 1 million followers gets the blue tick for free? I have 48.4 million followers, what then? You took the money, now the game’s over?” The Piku star also noted that it is his 4627th tweet on the platform. Check out the tweet below.
