The country-wide lockdown due to COVID-19 has suddenly given us a lot more free time to pursue what we always deferred for later. If you’re finding it hard to kill time during the lockdown, here’s a list of YouTubers you need to watch. These YouTube channels are working overtime to provide useful and entertaining content. Home-grown Telugu channels, like Wirally and Mahathalli, never fail to entertain. However, as a change, these are the YouTubers you need to watch.
