Nepali YouTubers are finding their voice through social commentary. What lies ahead?

When Saroj Karki saw his eight-year-old child lugging a heavy school bag on his shoulders, he could not help but feel a profound weight in his heart. He realised that this prevalent practice in the Nepali education system, which everyone seemed to accept, needed closer examination.

Karki researched it and this inquisitive tug inside his heart as a father gave him birth to his YouTube channel (Project Kura), in a real sense and got into social commentary. It is one of those many channels on YouTube that regularly post explanatory videos, engage an audience and talk about different socio-political issues with informative graphics.

In the digital world, there are over a dozen Nepali content creators consistently producing content with social commentary. This trend appears to be on the rise, with an increasing number of creators delving into various niches and effectively building their own communities.
