Local content creator creates #PrayForSA Instagram filter

Jashen Govindsamy, better known as "Jashmir" is a music content creator for TikTok SA from Durban, South Africa, has created a new Instagram filter #PrayForSA for people to use and help spread awareness on the current situation in South Africa.

The new Instagram filter offers a way for citizens to spread awareness on social media platform Instagram (which helps get the message globally).

Fans say Jashmir is using his powerful social presence to help spread awareness across the globe to his thousands of fans and followers worldwide and that the filter sends out
a very good message and shows unity in the country amidst the chaos.

Features of the #PrayForSA filter include:

  • South African flag that covers the user’s face in a face paint style
  • Words “Pray For South Africa” in bold, floating above the head
  • Videos up to 15 seconds can be recorded


The #PrayForSA filter is available on Instagram on Jashmir’s profile (@jashmirsa) under the filter section and can be used via the selfie camera. Users can post stories with the filter and use the hashtag #PrayForSA.

The filter was created to spread awareness globally and is not part of any “aesthetic rends”.
