| Subscribers | 30 Million |
| Most Popular Video | Cute girls prank, Talented people of Vigo |
An avid gamer, Nagar posted his first Youtube video when he was 10 years old, and hasn’t looked back since then. The content he produces consists mainly of “dissing” the cringe-worthy user-generated content that is spreading on all major social media platforms.
His youtube popularity is such that he ended up interviewing Tom Cruise and Henry Cavill. He responded to a video by PewDiePie where he had insulted an Indian man speaking in broken English, by releasing a video by the name of “Bye PewDiePie”. Nagar says that the goal of the video was to move Indians to feel deeply for their country and protect its reputation whenever a need arises.
His Youtube videos are in Hindi, which gives him the advantage of catering to a larger section of Indian audience. Ajey Nagar refuses to shift his content from Hindi to English to make it global, because he feels that one can succeed only when one is connected to their roots.
