Today, social media is dominated by content creators. They have revolutionised the way viewers consume content and interact with brands online. Businesses and brands now collaborate with and depend upon the impact of creators/influencers to reach their target markets. Their presence at every event is inevitable which only goes to show the power they hold. From being social media stars to crossing newer career milestones, content creators have definitely come a long way. The creator economy is only booming.
“From The Creator-Verse” is Social Nation‘s weekly round-up of everything that’s happening within the ‘Creator industry’.
Ananya Panday kickstarted her podcast journey on World Mental Health Day with her So Positive podcast. It features a crew of OG creators – Prajakta Koli a.k.a MostlySane, Sumukhi Suresh, Yashraj Mukhate, the Desi Crime Podcast team, Ankush Bahuguna, and Be YouNick — as they share their journeys toward digital well-being. Her first episode with Prajakta is out now on Spotify India, where they discuss Instagram hacks like the ‘Mute option‘ and more ways to live a healthy online life.
What happens when your Diwali shopping turns into a group project? Srishti Garg shows you how to #ShopWithGoogle. Vishnu Kaushal acts as the Google Search feature, giving her the right keywords and results for her outfit search. Next, Yuvraj Dua takes her through the categories, material and delivery options, price range, colour options, and more on the Google Search page.
Govind Menon explains how she can use the Google Lens feature to look for the jhumkas she likes. In the end, there’s Vagmita Singh a.k.a @thatindianchick_ playing the role of Google Pay to approve Srishti’s yet another shopping transaction. This was such a cool way to highlight Google’s features for the festive season!
Apoorva Mukhija a.k.a The Rebel Kid always dreamed of being an actor and model but ended up doing engineering. As an ace content creator, she recently got the opportunity to walk for Tasva x Tarun Tahiliani‘s fashion show. And the girl totally killed with that powerful look and walk! It was quite wholesome to watch her live her dream.
Content creators and influencers were at their fashionable best at the Lakme Fashion Week 2024 in partnership with FDCI.

Giving us all the Diwali feels, the Marathi culture representators Yashraj Mukhate and BhaDiPa released a fusion track called ‘Din Din Diwali.’ In association with Moti soap, they transformed us into the vibrant and nostalgic world of Diwali prep. They revived Moti soap’s iconic tagline “Utha utha Diwali aali, Moti snanachi vel zali!” This Diwali anthem is stuck in our heads now!
The hit show’s hit song ‘Paisa‘ is out now! One of Kushal Pokhrel‘s (@pokhrelkushal858) hit tracks, ‘Paisa‘ explores how money twists actions and transforms decisions into moves driven by greed. The song perfectly aligns with the gripping storyline of Taaza Khabar Season 2 and Bhuvan Bam‘s character Vasant Gawde, a.k.a. Vasya.
