Overview
- Khanna launched the channel on December 16 and posted a debut video reflecting on his journey, thanking Salman Khan, and crediting Pranit More and Mridul Tiwari for urging him onto social media.
- By December 17, fans reported the channel was unavailable, sharing a screenshot that stated the video was inaccessible because the associated YouTube account had been terminated.
- News reports relayed netizen speculation that artificial traffic or a rapid surge in subscribers may have triggered enforcement, though no official explanation has been issued by YouTube.
- Indian Express’ Screen cited a source close to Khanna who attributed the takedown to unusually fast traction—around 50,000 subscribers and 130,000 views in hours—and suggested internal checks could precede reinstatement, which remains unconfirmed.
- Separately, in post-finale interviews, Khanna dismissed runner-up Farrhana Bhatt’s “undeserving” remark and emphasized his focus on values he highlighted in the debut video.
