Alizeh Shah has surprised fans by deleting all her pictures from Instagram and announcing a temporary break from social media.
Taking to Instagram Stories, the Ehd-e-Wafa star shared a heartfelt video statement, saying she had removed all her posts and was stepping away from the platform to reflect on her life.
“I have deleted all the pictures from Instagram, and I am happy about it — mostly ashamed because I really don’t know what I was doing with my life, and it was all out of grief,” she admitted in the video.
Alizeh further revealed that she didn’t know when she would return but made it clear that her deleted posts and the version of herself that shared them, were gone for good.
“I don’t know when I will come back, but those pictures will never come back, and neither will that Alizeh. So, yeah, it’s a little goodbye,” she said.
Following her announcement, Alizeh’s video quickly went viral across social media platforms, with fans expressing mixed reactions. Many applauded her decision to prioritize her mental health, while others questioned the sudden move.
With over 4.3 million followers, the actress had a prolific account. Now she has replaced her display photo with a simple orange-colored solid background.
Over the past few years, Alizeh Shah has often found herself in the spotlight for both her bold social media presence and off-screen controversies. From daring fashion choices and music videos to public spats with co-stars and senior artists, she has remained a polarizing figure in the entertainment industry.
The actress previously admitted that many of her past actions stemmed from a period of grief and depression. She also claimed to have been mistreated by influential figures and openly spoke about her struggles.
Despite her controversies, including an on-set altercation where she reportedly slapped a co-actor and her much-publicized rift with veteran singer Shazia Manzoor, Alizeh continues to enjoy a strong fan following for her performances in hit dramas such as Ehd-e-Wafa and Ishq Tamasha.
As Alizeh Shah bids farewell to Instagram, at least for now, it is worth noting that this isn’t the first time she has done that, but fans are left wondering what the next chapter of the actress’s journey will look like and whether a “new” Alizeh will eventually return.
