Top 5 Content Creators To Enter 1 Million-Followers Club On Instagram In 2020

Here’s the top five Indians to achieve a million followers in a short span during this year.

5. Niharika Nm

It took exactly two months for her droll humour to achieve 1 million followers on Instagram. She shot up from 100 k to 1 million in about 60 days. Admitting that 2020 has been a promising year, Niharika NM says she never imagined her 'machan' jokes would get her such widespread recognition. Just 23, the YouTuber and content creator from Bengaluru is currently pursuing her MBA in California. What started as a hobby is now a USP. The South Indian accent and the witty humour are the soul of Niharika's content. So, the next time you are preparing a list of Indian Instagram stars, count her in!

4. Komal Pandey

If you want to learn how to channelise negative energy into positive, Fashion icon Komal Pandey is your go-to person. Komal began with a YouTube Channel, and remained consistent. With her chic earrings, oxidised jewellery and a vibrant combination of contemporary dresses, she can turn the traditional mom's saree to modern dress with a funky twist. Word spread fast, and her channel became popular. Instagram acted as force multiplier, and she crossed the 1 million-followers mark a few months ago, a milestone which she celebrated with her friends on and offline.

3. Dolly Singh

From social skits on streets to Instagram to the OTT debut - Dolly Singh upsets the notion that Bollywood survives by nepotism and there is only a little place for talent. She now has a niche audience and followers who clearly adore her talent and enjoy the various character transformations through her IGTV. 2020 was a magical year for Dolly because apart from reaching the 1 million-followers mark, she was critically acclaimed for her performance in the Netflix series 'Bhaag Beanie Bhaag'
