The year is finally ending. We all know what that means - best of 2021 lists! After Google Play and Spotify's customary lists, YouTube has also released its trends for 2021.
In terms of videos, zombies won the heart of Indians with the film titled "ZOMBIE | The Living Dead" by Round 2 Hell. If you can look past the clumsy make up and half-baked zombies, this makes for an entertaining watch.
The second most trending video on YouTube is comedic. Titled "PAAGAL BETA 13," the Desi comedy video was created by CS Bisht Vines. The animated video is a quirky take on the mundane in India.

According to YouTube data, the top breakout creators in India include "Harpreet SDC," "ADITECH," "The Viral Fever," "Family Fitness," and "STAR GAMERS."
