In a welcome digital development, Instagram users in India can once again view the profiles of several prominent Pakistani celebrities, including Mawra Hocane, Saba Qamar, Imran Abbas, Ayeza Khan, and Hania Aamir. These accounts, which were previously inaccessible due to regional restrictions, appear to be fully restored for Indian audiences. Fans on both sides of the border have expressed happiness over the move, calling it a step toward cultural reconnection amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.

Though no official statement has been released by Meta (Instagram’s parent company), the reinstated visibility has reignited conversations about the power of art and entertainment to transcend boundaries. Pakistani stars have long enjoyed massive followings in India, and this renewed digital access allows fans to reconnect with their favorite actors, models, and influencers. Whether the change signals a larger shift in cross-border digital policy remains unclear, but for now, it’s a positive moment for regional pop culture enthusiasts.
