It has been said that YouTuber married, Manisha Malika, who is of Indian Origin, but due to the second wave of the Wuhan virus pandemic, Malika got stuck in New Delhi.
However, the most torturing part is that the visa of Rock has been banned by the Indian government and because of that, he is not able to meet his wife, who is currently residing in New Delhi. Rock on the flip side is currently residing in New Zealand, however, he is trying his absolute best in order to meet his wife, even if he has to make use of his social media platform.

Moreover, he did not get any response from the Indian Home Ministery, when he tried to reach them numerous times through e-mail or even when his wife went to the Home Ministry in Delhi.
However, later, both the Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministery of External Affairs stated that the visa of Karl Rock was blacklisted because of various reasons including carrying business activities on a tourist visa, directing economic activities without informing the Foreigner registration office, invading prohibited areas without permission and not presenting tax returns.
As per the reports, the Visa of Rock is banned for about a year.
