YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia has said content creation offers better financial prospects than Bollywood for a larger number of people. In a post on X on Tuesday, he claimed that only about 30 people at the top of the film industry make substantial money, while thousands of creators can build sustainable incomes without becoming mainstream celebrities.
Several users agreed, saying creators need an audience and a monetisable skill, while others argued that only a small share of content creators earn well. One user also said artificial intelligence could intensify competition.
Filmmaker Farah Khan has previously said content creation became the most financially rewarding part of her career. She joined YouTube in 2024 and later expanded her cooking videos with her cook Dilip into travel content. Khan said she still wants to direct films.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Creator income is usually built from several streams, including advertising, brand partnerships, paid memberships, live interactions and product sales. That model can reduce dependence on a single film project, but earnings vary sharply with audience size, platform rules and advertisers’ demand. Bollywood also has a wide range of incomes beyond its best-known stars, including technicians, writers and supporting performers. The useful signal to watch is whether creators can retain audiences and revenue as platforms change their algorithms and monetisation rules.
