Whether it is a celeb turned influencer, or someone with a passion for travel taking over our world or a yesteryear actor now finding a new lease of life by creating great content. Every year, we try to understand these new niches emerging in the creator economy. As a year-ender edition, this month we try to unravel and showcase some of the most popular influencers across 20 different categories. While shortlisting these names, the editorial team judged their popularity, longevity, audience engagement, content virality among the masses, and brand extensions. As always, our focus every year is to capture new names each year to give a fresh spin to our content. We believe you will be as influenced by their work as we were while selecting them.
