In the crowded world of Indian YouTube, Slayy Point stands out as a powerhouse of satire, fun, and social commentary. Run by Abhyudaya Mohan and Gautami Kawale, the channel has gone from cracking cricket jokes to building a loyal subscriber base of around 10 million.

Their story is proof that when humour is relatable and respectful, it can create not just viral videos but also cultural conversations.

Abhyudaya and Gautami’s journey began in Mumbai, where the two became school friends bonded by their love for humour and pop culture.

In 2016, they launched their YouTube channel as “Silly Point”, focusing mainly on cricket jokes. But just a year later, they rebranded to “Slayy Point”, expanding into comedy sketches, pop culture takes, and relatable roast videos. 

That move paid off big time. Their witty commentaries on everything from viral internet fads to Bollywood clichés made them a fresh voice in the Indian creator space.

Unlike harsh roasts, their comedy always leaned on being friendly, respectful, and smartly observant, a balance that immediately clicked with young audiences.

Fast forward to 2025, and Slayy Point is no small channel anymore. They now have over 9 million subscribers on YouTube, 1.9 million followers on Instagram, and a buzzing fan base across social media.

Their growth was boosted by collaboration with creators like CarryMinati and Ashish Chanchlani, plus high-profile appearances such as hosting the YouTube Fan Fest red carpet in India.

Signature series like “Worst Indian Ads” and their viral “Stupidity” videos have become fan favourites, mixing satire with commentary that keeps people coming back for more.

Slayy Point isn’t just about laughs. The duo has shown courage in tackling real issues through comedy. A prime example came in 2025 with their hit video, “Why The WORLD Suddenly Hates INDIANS.” The video sparked conversations on civic sense, online behaviour, and global perceptions.

Their travel and cultural explorations have also resonated widely. From covering India’s fascination with Korean culture to showcasing luxury train experiences, Abhyudaya and Gautami have proven they can go beyond memes to create content with global appeal.

But the journey hasn’t been all smooth. In late 2024, a video segment referencing Elvish Yadav’s family stirred controversy, leading to trolling campaigns, especially targeting Gautami. Rather than escalating, the duo issued a quick apology and moved to resolve the issue.

The way they handled the backlash showed their maturity and accountability as creators. It also highlighted the tricky balance between humour and sensitivity in the age of viral outrage.

What fans love most is Slayy Point’s authenticity. Despite their fame, Abhyudaya and Gautami maintain professional boundaries, keeping personal lives private while staying laser-focused on their mission to entertain and make people think.

Their resilience in the face of criticism, combined with their commitment to thoughtful comedy, has cemented their reputation as one of India’s most influential creator duos.

Slayy Point continues to push boundaries with fresh content, relatable takes, and genuine interactions with fans. Their journey shows how satire, done right, can be more than entertainment.

It can spark conversations, shift perspectives, and still leave viewers smiling. Slayy Point has proved that laughter is powerful, not just for jokes, but for shaping how India’s youth sees the world.
