How I picked these creators

I looked for Indian creators who meet a few simple criteria:

• Consistent quality and upload cadence in the last 12 months.

• Large and active audiences (publicly verifiable subscriber counts and views).

• Genre variety — entertainment, tech, cooking, experiments, vlogs and motivation.

• Broad appeal — channels that are useful or enjoyable to both new viewers and long-time fans.

Now — the list! Each entry has a short “why watch” and a recommended starter video/series.

1) CarryMinati (Ajey Nagar) — Roast, gaming and personality-driven entertainment

Tips for watching (so creators stay sustainable — and you don’t burn out)

• Use playlists: follow a creator’s playlists rather than aimless autoplay. Playlists curate long-form series and save time.

• Subscribe + bell selectively: don’t enable bells for every channel—pick 3–5 creators you truly enjoy to avoid notification fatigue.

• Support beyond views: if you value a creator, support via memberships, merch or small one-off contributions (Patreon / channel membership).

• Rate-limit consumption: bingeing can be fun, but pace yourself—set a daily or weekend “creator hour” to enjoy new videos without overwhelm.
