The all-time most-watched channel in YouTube history returned to the #1 spot in the Global Top 50. T-Series was the only channel that hauled in more than one billion views during the first week of November — it topped out at 1.09 billion weekly views, bringing its lifetime view count above 362 billion.
T-Series was not the only channel from India to crack the Global Top 50. In fact, more than half of the channels in this week’s chart hail from the world’s most populous nation. In India, a spate of film releases and national celebrations have directed more traffic toward channels that were already thriving on YouTube.
YouTube is fixated on the holiday season — and no, I’m not talking about American celebrations. India recently rejoiced for Navratri and Unity Day, and a more famous festival is up next on the calendar. It’s time to celebrate Diwali.
The Hindu festival of lights falls on November 8 this year, and many of the traditional celebrations are taking place on YouTube.
