Early Childhood Struggles

Pragati Vermaa has been battling severe migraine issues since childhood, necessitating continuous medication. These health issues significantly impacted her daily life and education. When preparing for her board exams in 2018, Pragati relied heavily on YouTube for studying, as her headaches often prevented her from attending school. This period was pivotal, as it introduced her to the potential of YouTube, sparking her interest in creating content.

The Beginning of Her YouTube Journey

Pragati’s YouTube journey began at the age of 16, motivated by her early experiences with video editing in the 5th grade. She started creating content across three YouTube channels, gradually building a substantial following. Her initial success was not without challenges; despite having over 100,000 subscribers, Pragati faced technical issues that delayed her earnings. It wasn’t until she amassed 200,000 subscribers that she received her first payment of ₹49,000, a moment that affirmed the financial viability of her efforts.

Pragati Vermaa showed remarkable commitment to her studies and remained strong even as her YouTube career took off. She achieved an impressive 93% in her 12th-grade exams, balancing her academic responsibilities with content creation.

Achieving Major Milestones

One of Pragati’s most significant achievements was reaching 10 million subscribers in just eight months after starting a new channel for YouTube Shorts videos. Her relentless work ethic, often sacrificing sleep to produce and edit content, paid off as several of her videos went viral. Today, Pragati boasts over 27 million subscribers across her three YouTube channels and 1.1 million followers on Instagram.
