Noting that industry believes YouTube content creators can’t act, Bhuvan hopes success of Taaza Khabar 2 will change perception

Bhuvan Bam
With his debut web series Taaza Khabar, YouTube star Bhuvan Bam delivered a confident performance as a down-on-luck guy whose life turns around when he gets a superpower. One would think its success would be an example of how actors can be discovered from unexpected places. But Bam says there is a strong bias against content creators turning to acting. “I want to change the perception that a YouTube content creator can’t lead projects. I shut my critics by making Taaza Khabar one of the most watched shows of 2023 [on Disney+ Hotstar],” he asserts.
