100 Million YouTube Subscribers! - T-Series on a roll

Leading media platform T-series have created history by becoming the first YouTube channel to cross 100 Million subscribers. Last year in June 2018 T-Series had crossed 50 Million subscribers and in a span of 11 Months achieved this magical landmark of 100 Million Subscribers. However competition is still stiff for the top position as only till April 2019, 2nd-placed PewDiePie was leading in this race. An intense rivalry was created between the two leading YouTube channels and their fans after T-Series took over the lead momentarily over PewDiePie in Feb 2019, since then both the channels have hit the top spot multiple times with T-Series gaining a significant lead in April 2019. According to Social Blade, a social media analytics page, PewDiePie is predicted to cross 100 million mark by June 2. An elatated Bhusan Kumar, Chaiman & MD, T-Series expressed,

A constant surge of new music as well as early adaptation and first mover advantage went in our favour.
