After Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube, the latest medium that as sparked the attention of netizens has been TikTok. More associated with youngsters at one point,now even celebrities have been taking to the short video-making platform in a big way. As per latest reports, TikTok has become the most-downloaded app worldwide in recent days and one of the main drivers to this statistic has been India. However, there is also a section that are not too plesaed with the platform.
One of those to vent out recently on the app was popular bollywood singer Neha Bhasin. The singer termed it ‘cringe-worthy’. The Jag Ghoomeya artist wondered why ‘TikTokers’ were famous, and also blamed music labels for forcing ‘lousy apperances’ from celebrities to ‘leach of their fame’.
I always found #TikTok cringe worthy.
With all due respect what are #tiktokers famous for? But I will point out our music industry is as much at fault, big labels forced their lousy appearances in music videos to leech of their fame. So they deserve each other.. What say?— Neha Bhasin ( Folktales Live ) (@nehabhasin4u) May 9, 2020
She also termed it as a ‘’disease to mankind’ and hoped it leaves the earth like coronavirus. Neha wrote that the content on the platform was ‘below IQ level’ and stated that it brought the minds to the ‘lowest capacity.’ She also found it odd that auto-rickshaw drivers were binge-watching videos of young girls.
I would genuinely be pleased if #coronavirus and #TikTok leave this earth. They really are a disease to mankind. Our minds are being pulled down to its lowest capacity and the content truly is below normal IQ level. I have seen auto walas binging on tik tok young girl videos 🙄

While some agreed to her views, one netizen trolled her by asking if her views mattered, with just over 30K followers. Neha hit back that having followers in millions was not the only point of life and ever compared the increase of followers to cockroaches, before asking the netizen to spare her.
On a related note, Neha recently had made headlines for calling out a delivery platform over unhygenic delivery of food. At that time too, she had hit back with strong responses to the trolls. In other news, Neha also reunited with her teammates from the band Viva amid the lockdown.
