History
The Round2hell channel was created on 20 October 2016. Initially, the group uploaded football montage videos, which did not gain much attention. Their transition to comedy sketches brought significant success, with their fifteenth video, Jio Users After 31st March, going viral in 2017 during the end of Reliance Jio's free data offer.[3]
The name "Round2hell" was reportedly chosen by Zayn Saifi and was inspired by a drifting incident he jokingly referred to as a "round to hell." The group later stated the name was picked somewhat randomly.
Members
The core members of the group are:
- Zayn Saifi
- Nazim Ahmed
- Wasim Ahmad
They occasionally work with additional actors and crew members for larger productions, but these individuals are not part of the main group.[4][5][6]
Content
Round2hell's videos are primarily Hindi-language comedy sketches that feature exaggerated characters, situational humor, and references to Indian social and cultural issues. Common themes include family, friendship, school life, and romance.[7]
They have also produced narrative-driven short films that incorporate elements of thriller and science fiction, such as:
- Zombie: The Living Dead (2021)
- 1959 (2021)
- Age of Water (2022)
- Aadi Manav (2023)[8]
- Men on Mission (2023)
Recognition
Round2hell has become one of the most popular YouTube channels in India, with over 35 million subscribers as of 2025. Several of their videos, including Aladdin and Mauka Mauka, have surpassed 100 million views.[9][10]
They have been featured in multiple media outlets as one of India's highest-paid YouTubers.[11]
In 2021, YouTube named Zombie: The Living Dead one of the most trending videos of the year.
In 2023, the group received the Sketch Comedy Creator of the Year award at the Creators United event and collaborated with Netflix India on a video titled Is Time Travel Possible?[12]
