India's digital artists are posing a threat to traditional celebrities! Comedian Tanmay Bhat is now the richest person in India, with an incredible net worth of Rs 665 crore.

How the Scandals Changed His Path

Despite having a sizable fan base, the YouTuber has been involved in controversies, which also caused his comedy show AIB to fail. Most of it ended up being a bit too explicit, though there were some really funny parts. Numerous FIRs have already been filed against the show's creators.

The Sachin-Lata Sketch Backlash

For all the wrong reasons, Tanmay's drawing of Sachin Tendulkar and the late singer Lata Mangeshkar talking went viral. Many people were critical of the video, especially in Maharashtra.

What’s Next for India’s Richest YouTuber

This was the main controversy surrounding Tanmay. He was accused of protecting alleged sexual harassers by not taking action against fellow comedian Gursimran Khamba and writer Utsav Chakraborty.

Comedian and actress Aditi Mittal accused Tanmay of exploiting his depression and allowing trashy behaviour at AIB in a series of startling tweets. A contentious debate about AIB's workplace culture resulted from this.

“Whenever someone in your family falls sick, especially with a rather rare illness that no one has had before, you always remember this one uncle who had the same condition seven years ago. You call him and ask about what should be done next. Well… I am comedy’s patient zero.”
