What started as a livestream soon turned into one of the biggest charity drives by an Indian content creator.

YouTuber Nischay Malhan, popularly known as Triggered Insaan, has completed a 50-hour livestream to raise funds for people affected by the devastating floods in Assam. By the end of the non-stop broadcast, the fundraiser had collected Rs 70 lakh, thanks to contributions from viewers as well as members of the Malhan family.

The livestream, which began on July 31 on Nischay’s Live Insaan YouTube channel, witnessed an overwhelming response. It garnered more than 15.9 million views and, towards the final hours, crossed 1.15 lakh concurrent viewers. Despite staying awake for the entire 50-hour challenge, Nischay remained active throughout the stream, interacting with viewers and encouraging them to donate.

According to Nischay, viewers contributed over Rs 54 lakh during the fundraiser. He donated Rs 10 lakh, while his brother and fellow creator Abhishek Malhan, better known as Fukra Insaan, added Rs 5 lakh to the relief fund.

 

The fundraiser also found support from other members of his family. Creator Prerna Malhan contributed Rs 1 lakh, while Ruchika Rathore donated Rs 50,000. Nischay also thanked Harshit Kumar for standing by him throughout the physically demanding livestream.

Sharing a video on Instagram after completing the challenge, Nischay reflected on the achievement alongside Abhishek. The caption read, “Just completed 50 hours no-sleep marathon stream and raised Rs 70 lakh—Rs 10 lakh donated by me.”

Before going live, Nischay had announced that he would contribute Rs 20,000 for every hour he stayed on stream. Viewers could donate through a UPI link or via a dedicated fundraising page associated with Bondhu, an organisation working on relief efforts in Assam. Nischay said the money raised would be channelled towards flood-relief work through the organisation.
