In an era where most shows dominate charts through major OTT platforms, Ekaki has achieved this remarkable feat after releasing directly on YouTube. Without the backing of a traditional streaming service, the series has managed to capture massive audience attention purely through its storytelling and strong word of mouth. The series currently holds an impressive 8.2 rating on IMDb and has climbed to the #1 position on IMDb’s Top 100 Popular Indian TV Shows list, highlighting how digital-first content on open platforms like YouTube can compete with—and even surpass—big-ticket shows released on leading OTT platforms. With Chanchlani spearheading the project across departments as writer, director, producer, and actor, Ekaki’s rise to the top of IMDb’s popular shows chart reflects the strong response it has received from viewers and the impact it has made among audiences.
