@maisamayhoon just made
@netflix break a rule it had never broken for anyone.
A year ago his biggest show was pulled and the headlines turned on him. Most people thought that was the end.
Instead, he came back with more leverage than before 👇
He built a loyal community before he ever needed a platform — chess streams in lockdown, then comedy, all on his own channel.
India’s Got Latent lived on
@youtube , his turf, not a studio’s — he grew it where nobody could take it from him
When the show was pulled, the audience didn’t leave. They waited. A real community survives a bad news cycle
So Netflix didn’t discover him — it came knocking, wanting what he’d already built
And he got the deal without giving up his home: Netflix simulcast Season 2 on YouTube too — something it says it had never done for any show, anywhere
The result: 45 million YouTube views in four days and a spot in Netflix’s global top 10
Most creators chase platforms. Samay made the biggest platform chase him — because he owned the one thing platforms can’t manufacture: a loyal audience.
💡 A platform gives you reach. Only YOU can build leverage. Own your audience and the deals come to you, on your terms.
