Mohammad Shiraz became famous after sharing videos about his family, daily life and neighbourhood updates. In his emotional "last vlog", he explained the break and took his viewers on a tour of his village.
Mohammad Shiraz, a six-year-old boy from Pakistan who became famous on social media with his vlogs, recently announced his departure. His "last vlog", shared five days ago on YouTube, left fans stunned and concerned. He had said that he is putting a stop on making vlogs as his father wants to focus on his study. Now, Shiraz's father Mohammad Taqi has disclosed that the fame the young boy got online started to affect Shiraz's life, which is why he decided to prioritise his son's health and childhood over stardom.
"Shiraz had a simple life, he used to speak to people nicely. But the fame had its side effects. He stopped talking to people nicely, or mingling with them. So, I thought I should bring back that old Shiraz," Mr Taqi said in the video uploaded on the boy's channel. It is gaining traction on the platform, having amassed nearly 7.5 lakh views.
