Overtaking T-Series, MrBeast is now the most subscribed YouTube channel. The YouTuber, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, pledged earlier in 2023 to help Pewdiepie, another influencer, by achieving this.
MrBeast shared a screenshot showing his subscription numbers in comparison to T-Series, the company name of Bhushan Kumar’s Super Cassettes Industries Private Limited.
In 1997, Bhushan Kumar took over as the leader of T-Series after his father, legendary Gulshan Kumar, passed away. Bollywood musicals are being produced by the music company these days. It has given rise to hit films such as Animal, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, and Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar.
For a long time, T-Series was the most popular YouTube channel. It became the first to reach the 200 million subscriber mark in 2021. By October 2023, MrBeast’s subscription count had remained constant due to its rapid rise in popularity.
With more than 250 million subscribers by April 2024, the 26-year-old American YouTuber’s main channel was one of the fastest-growing on the platform.
MrBeast declared his historic achievement on X (previously Twitter), writing, “After 6 years we have finally avenged Pewdiepie.” He posted a screenshot indicating that he has 1,608 more YouTube subscribers than T-Series.
Elon Musk, the owner of X, was one of the primary individuals to congratulate the social media influencer as the congratulations came in. “Whoa, congrats!” Musk wrote.
Nearly 10 million people viewed MrBeast’s post on X, and many people on social media responded with memes.
On June 1st, Mr. Beast shared a photo on his X account, indicating that he trailed the top place by just approximately one million members.
