BeastBoyShub

Shubham Saini (Hindi: शुभम सैनी; born: ), better known online as BeastBoyShub (or simply Shub), is an Indian gaming YouTube content creator and vlogger.
==Career==
Shub started uploading videos initially in the "roast" commentary genre. Though, he had to delete some of the first videos he uploaded, due to criticism over the use of profanity. Some more were removed due to copyright claims.
He uploaded gaming videos next. His first video that was publicly available for the longest time was a "Friendship Day Special" video, which has since been unlisted from the channel. The first video to be publicly available to date is titled "It's Just The Beginning :}". He did QNAs, vlogs, gaming, story-telling, and much more on his channel, many of which he still does to this day. His first gaming video to remain publicly available is entitled, "CS:GO India Funny Moments #1."
The channel reached 100,000 subscribers in June 2017, upon which he received his Silver Play Button. With an increase in his budget, he started playing paid games, although he continues to play free games as well. He reached one million subscribers at the beginning of 2019, and uploaded an unboxing video for the Golden Play Button too, which has since been hidden from public view.
He attended a 1v1 interview organised by 1Up Gaming in October 2019. He also attended the first YouTube Gaming Creators Summit at Los Angeles in November 2019. Again later the month, he attended and served as a delegate at the Pop-Up Chennai, a YouTube Gaming Creators workshop held in Chennai, Tamil Nadu.
After uploading a video on 17 May 2021, Shub went on the 9 month-long hiatus, during which he uploaded a vlog on Shubhuuu. The first video on his main channel after the hiatus was uploaded on 22 February 2022 where he described his experience off YouTube through the past nine months, and he has been uploading regularly since.
==Original video games==
===Zombie Shooter===
In 2019, Shubham co-created an online leaderboard-based game BeastBoyShub Zombie Shooter, a 2D singleplayer TPS game in which the player had to fend off and defend themselves from zombies. It was released by Shub on the website Withkoji and is officially named @BeastBoyShub Zombie Shooter. It can be played here.
===Zombie Hunter===
Later the following year, he co-created his second game, BeastBoyShub: The Zombie Hunter, exploiting the running gag that he liked to kill zombies. It was also an online leaderboard-based game. It was first released on Google Play Store in partnership with Diego Schirò on 29 December 2019.
==Channels==
===RealShub===
RealShub was a channel started by Shub to practise his English-speaking. The frequency of video uploads on the channel decreased as it did not gain enough recognition among his primarily Hindi-speaking viewer base.
Finally on 11 November 2022, the channel was retired with an announcement video uploaded on Shubhuuu. All of the 43 existing videos were made private, but Shub plans on keeping the channel intact for a personal archive of the videos.
===Shubhuuu===
Shubhuuu was started in January 2020 with the original name "Shubhooo," where he wanted to compensate for his English-language vlogs by creating separate vlogs in Hindi. He also believed that he "could not express himself properly through English." It quickly surpassed the subscriber count of RealShub, gaining 400,000 subscribers within four days. In November 2020, the channel was renamed to "Shubhuuu."
Initially consisting of random vlogs shot in and around Delhi and his neighbourhood, the longest series of videos uploaded to the channel is that of the vlogs of Shub's thirteen day-trip to Japan.
===NotSoShub===
NotSoShub (formerly BBS Clips) is Shub's livestream and VOD channel created on 8 July 2022. It contains short clippings of videos from Shub's gaming videos and vlogs, usually ranging from around 30 seconds to 5 minutes, but excluding livestreams, which are set to members-only for viewing after end.
On 7 July 2023, he announced that he would be moving all of his future live streams to this channel.
Besides these channels, he also has a Google account with his real name, which is private and used to browse comments during QNAs.
==Personal life==
Shubham Saini was born in a village near Delhi, where he completed his schooling and college. His father was a businessman and his mother was a housewife. He was raised alongside his younger sister Himanshi Saini.
Around the time when he had roughly 300 subscribers on YouTube, he realised he was struggling at B.Tech stream at his college, and quit it. He had also attended few coaching courses for federal jobs. "आल्तू-फ़ाल्तू के जितने भी कोर्स थे, सब पकड़ डाले मैंने।"
Once he had enough subscribers on YouTube to monetise the channel and sustain himself financially, he quit college and assisted in his father's business, maintaining YouTube as a part-time job. Later, he chose YouTube as a full-time job, quitting the business occupation too. He states that his work has been entirely inspired by Swedish YouTuber PewDiePie. "PewDiePie मेरा inspiration था; वो मेरा inspiration रहेगा।"
