Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan's social media presence is currently a topic of significant interest, especially with his Instagram account @iamsrk boasting nearly 50 million followers. Recently, it was revealed that this popular account is not Shahrukh's first on the platform; his original account has been reactivated after 14 years of inactivity due to the efforts of a hacker who claims to be a devoted fan. This revelation has caught the attention of social media users and media outlets alike.

A conversation on social media platform X highlighted Shahrukh's first Instagram account, which the user discussed after forgetting its password and subsequently creating a new account. The user shared a screenshot of this historical account, identified by the username @picsrk. The rekindling of interest around this old account has led to various media reports referencing an older podcast featuring Shahrukh's publicist Mandvi Sharma, suggesting that the actor's early days on social media are still significant.

This incident not only showcases the fan culture surrounding Shahrukh Khan but also emphasizes the shifting dynamics of one’s digital presence. The reveal of his first account after so long could potentially engage more fans and lead to a deeper connection with his audience. It also raises questions about digital identity and the ability of fans to recover past digital footprints.
