The recent observation of the shadow of the supermassive black hole M87*, located at the center of the M87 galaxy, by the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration has opened up a new window to probe the strong gravity regime. In this paper, we explicitly demonstrate the consequences of this observation on brane world black holes, characterized by existence of a negative tidal charge. Our results based on three observables associated with the shadow, namely, angular diameter, deviation from circularity, and axis ratio reveal that the existence of a negative tidal charge is more favored, possibly marking a deviation from general relativity.
