A young vlogger from Pakistan, who captured the hearts of social media users with his endearing daily life vlogs, recently left fans heartbroken by announcing his departure from YouTube. Mohammad Shiraz, a six-year-old boy dubbed as the “youngest” vlogger in Pakistan, bid an emotional goodbye to his 1.57 million YouTube followers a few days ago. His father, Mohammad Taqi, revealed that the online fame had begun to impact Shiraz’s life, prompting the decision to prioritize his son’s well-being and childhood over stardom. Now, his younger sister steps in to fill the void, much to the delight of fans.
Muskan has taken over her brother’s role on the popular Shirazi Village Vlogs YouTube channel. On May 24, Muskan made her debut with her first solo video titled “Muskan Ki Gulo Molo.” In this brief introduction, Muskan greeted her fans and showcased her village, Khaplu. The video also captured her playful interactions with a baby goat and her friends.

Meanwhile, Shiraz gained fame for his spontaneous videos depicting his family, daily life, and updates from his neighborhood. In his poignant “final” vlog, he explained the hiatus and offered viewers a tour of his village, including some lively moments with Muskan. In the video, he expressed, “Main aaj se vlog nahi banaunga. Mere abbu ne bola hai aap kuch din padhai karo aur video nahi banaao (I will not make vlogs now onwards. My father has asked me to study and not make videos for now).”
His father, Mr. Taqi, later elaborated on the decision, stating, “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.” He further noted, “The second reason was he was losing interest in studies.” Despite this transition, Mr. Taqi expressed gratitude for the overwhelming love and support Shiraz received online. He has been commended online for prioritizing his son’s well-being over fame and financial gain.
