Popular Creator Triggered Insaan Ventures Into Reality TV With Gaming Insaan

Content creator Nischay Malhan, widely known as Triggered Insaan, is expanding his horizons with the launch of a new reality series “Gaming Insaan” on Amazon MX Player. The show, which premiered today, documents his attempt to transition from content creation to professional gaming over a 45-day period.

Award-Winning Creator Takes On New Challenge

The timing of the show is particularly noteworthy as it follows Malhan’s recent recognition at the National Creator Awards, where he received the Best Creator in Gaming Category award from Prime Minister Modi. With over 19 million subscribers on YouTube, Malhan has built his reputation through gaming content, particularly Minecraft videos, and his relatable commentary style.

Inside Gaming Insaan

The reality series takes viewers through Malhan’s intensive training at a professional gaming boot camp. During the 45-day program, he trains alongside established esports athletes, learning the fundamentals of competitive gaming and experiencing the daily routines of professional players. The show highlights the significant difference between creating gaming content and competing at a professional level, with Malhan dedicating up to 12 hours daily to practice.

From Engineering to Entertainment

Malhan’s path to content creation is itself an interesting story. An IIT Delhi graduate in Electronics and Communication Engineering, he started his YouTube journey in 2014 while working a full-time job. After reaching 100,000 subscribers, he made the decision to focus entirely on content creation, a move that has proved successful given his current following.

Family and Friends Feature

The show includes appearances from fellow content creators, including his brother Abhishek Malhan and Ashish Chanchlani, who share their perspectives on his new venture. These appearances offer viewers insight into the support system behind successful content creators and the challenges of balancing personal relationships with professional ambitions.

Where to watch Gaming Insaan?

“Gaming Insaan” is now available on Amazon MX Player, launching alongside another gaming-focused show, “Playground 4,” which features Elvish Yadav and Munawar Faruqui as mentors. The parallel release of these shows indicates growing interest in gaming-focused content in India’s streaming landscape.

The series aims to showcase the dedication required to compete in esports while offering viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the professional gaming world. Through Malhan’s experience, audiences get to see firsthand what it takes to potentially make the leap from content creator to competitive gamer.
