  1. Casino Games

Playing popular casino games like poker, roulette, etc. has been a problem in India for decades. This is because the central government and the government of most states don’t allow a legal practice of these games. However, the emergence of online casino games like online jackpots India has changed everything. This is because the government allows for casino games and sports betting games that are “skill-based”, and there are all kinds of interesting platforms on the Internet where you can play these games whenever you want, even on your smartphone!

  1. Streaming TV

High-speed Internet access has become more of a norm in India. As the users are able to stream videos on YouTube, Amazon Video, etc. on the fly, and also watch popular movies online, the popularity of traditional TV is declining quickly. In fact, in the recent past, the government had to get involved as the streaming giants like Netflix were airing new movies just 4 weeks after release which was hurting the collections. The Telugu Film Producers Council had then imposed a rule as per which these platforms can now release movies only after 8 weeks post-release.

  1. YouTubers

YouTube is one of the oldest streaming platforms and is still on the top, thanks to its content creators. Today, creative geniuses across the country are providing quality and entertaining content to others via their channels in categories like traveling, gaming, gadget reviews, etc. For instance, GeekyRanjit is one of the most popular tech reviewers in India and has estimated earnings of up to 1.2 million USD!

  1. Influencers

Influencers are social media users who have a large number of fans and followers. In India, they are largely entertainers who publish funny cartoons, skits, memes, etc. on popular websites like Facebook and Twitter. Since they have a wide reach on these platforms, they charge big bucks for sharing promotional content for big and small businesses.
