Bhuvan Bam - Early Life

Bhuvan Bam was born in Baroda, Gujarat in 1994. However, he was brought up in Delhi where he finished his schooling and under-graduation. He admits that he was never a brilliant student. He was just an average student who struggled to get good marks. That being said, he strongly advocates against pressuring students to score good marks and get into good colleges.

He shows through his own life that all those are unnecessary for being successful. After his schooling, he did his undergraduate degree in History from Shaheed Bhagat Singh College of Delhi University.

He had recently uploaded his mark sheet where he was seen to have scored 74% in his board exams. This was to sensitize people about the meaninglessness of scoring high marks. He revealed that he was also under high pressure to score more and get admission to an excellent college as a kid. However, what is important is to realize one’s own strengths and weaknesses and work accordingly.

Bhuvan BAM - Realizing New Passion

It was during the break between his school and college that he realized his passion for music. He took training in classical music and other forms of music. Even though his parents were not so supportive, he continued to stay firm in his decisions.

Slowly, he started to perform in restaurants and bars which in itself was a happy start for Bhuvan Bam. He was very patient with his growth. Like all other parents, his parents were also very disappointed with him singing in bars.

Fortunately, he was able to convince his family about what he wanted and proved to them that he is ready to work hard for it. One important thing that he shares in this regard is that he was very patient with himself, his learning, and his growth. He did not rush into anything.

Bhuvan Bam - BB Ki Vines

BB Ki Vines came as an unexpected idea to Bhuvan. He had never expected the first video that he uploaded would be a hit. It was a mockery of a reporter who was asking insensitive questions to a woman during the Kashmir floods. His approach and critique were well-received and went viral on the platform.

Soon he uploaded the video after creating a channel named BB Ki Vines. He hasn’t looked back since then. Today his 2-12 minutes video has different popular characters like Bancho, Titu mama, Bablu Janki, etc. It is part of his talk show named “Titu Talks”.

Reports say that he makes an average of three to four lakhs per video. The margin of his profit becomes more evident when you learn that he shoots his videos with the front camera of his own phone. Additionally, all the characters in his video are played by himself.

This means he spends absolutely nothing in creating a video and earns lakhs. BB Ki Vines continues to win the hearts of people by curating content for his 20.5 million subscribers and many more viewers.
