Shahid Afridi is a loving yet protective father to his five daughters. In one of the shows, he had said that he discourages his children from using social media on mobile phones. Afridi even asked Shehzad Roy to campaign for the ban on the TikTok application.
“[Shehzad] raises his voice for so many social issues, he should get TikTok banned. I don’t like TikTok. There are so many children in remote areas of Pakistan who haven’t received an education, but they’ve received WiFi. Even to be on the internet, you need to be educated. Look at how TikTok is being used in the country. Our entire younger generation, 12-13 years olds, have phones in their hands. My daughter is 19, I have given her a cell phone now. These children get diverted by things like TikTok when they should be focusing on their goals.”
