India-based T-Series is the most subscribed YouTube channel as of January 2024. What keeps them so secret? To be honest, it's not that secret: T-Series is a record company that specializes in Indi-pop and Hindi movie soundtracks.

It's the largest movie studio and record label in the nation. Considering that India is home to more than 1.3 billion people, it is a major nation. Not to mention the entire number of customers outside of India.

I'm sure MrBeast has offered to buy you a Lamborghini or a new mansion at some time. In the middle of the decade, the one-man content factory gained notoriety by throwing lavish prizes and mind-blowing challenges. He is currently the highest-paid YouTuber as of 2024. Why?

Mr. Beast—Jammy Donaldson to his parents—is, well, entertaining. The American content maker initially gained popularity on YouTube with unusual antics like counting to 100,000 and reciting the whole dictionary. Since then, he has expanded, and people are now subscribing to follow his future endeavours.

He occasionally makes touching films in which he pays for people's surgeries. At other times, he takes absurd actions that make people laugh, like gifting a real island to his 100,000,000th subscriber. It features stuff that is larger than life and aspirational, unavailable elsewhere.

The second company we have from the nation is Sony Entertainment Television (SET) India. Though they include highlights, promos, and entire episodes, how did they amass such a fan base? You may attribute it to the sheer amount of content they create—between 30 and 40 videos per day—as well as the size of the nation they broadcast to.

The well-known Sony brand is also quite beneficial. You'll get a lot of views if you combine it with excellent programming and viewership that isn't restricted to terrestrial television.

With his commentary-filled playing videos of games like Call of Duty and Minecraft, PewDiePie gained popularity. His usage of certain words in his text has also generated criticism in the past.

They engage in a variety of entertaining activities together, such as brand-related material with kid-friendly characters like Paw Patrol.

It turns out that internet wrestling is popular. Highlights, interviews, fresh bouts, historic battles, and more can all be found on the WWE's YouTube account. Wrestling generates enormous revenue in both live and pay-per-view settings, but the free YouTube version is still quite valuable.

Professional wrestling is entertainment at the end of the day. The boxers are amazing performers and athletes who sell every knockout. You can watch it live on pay-per-view or in little pieces on YouTube while lounging on the couch. Given the size of WWE as a corporation, it is not unexpected that it has one of the highest subscriber counts on YouTube.
