An alcohol brand extension on a 15-year-old IPL cricketer’s jersey is being seen as a rule-based decision.

If you go by the law, then it is.

India allows such extensions in related categories if they are real and avoid direct product signals.

In this case, apparently, Vaibhav Suryavanshi is old enough to carry a brand on his jersey.

But interestingly, Vaibhav is not an outlier anymore.

KlugKlug's data shows 27,000+ creators between 13 and 18 are doing paid brand partnerships in India, with 16,000+ carrying an engagement rate above 2%.

This means kids today are not just consuming the advertisement but also becoming a part of it.

For brands looking to work with teenage influencers, we have mapped the ones with the strongest audience alignment below.

Everyone in Indian marketing still asks: “Who’s the largest soap brand?”

Wrong question.

The real question is:
Who owns demand?

Because on e-commerce, consumers aren’t searching for “soap” anymore.

They’re searching for:
Kojic acid, acne solution, brightening, detan, and "magic soap.”

And somewhere in that shift, legacy brand logic quietly broke.

AdEx, shelf dominance, celebrity recall, and distribution muscle, all of it matters less when consumers discover products through creators, validate through content, and purchase through search.

That’s why a brand most urban marketers barely discuss, Ghar Soaps, can dominate ecommerce intent against legacy giants.

The moat is no longer distribution.

It's

Content → Search → Purchase → Content.

Meanwhile, many incumbents are still running:
AdEx → Awareness → Hope.

Ecommerce is no longer a sales channel but the earliest demand signal in the market.

Most brand trackers measure memory, but very few measure intent.

That gap is where disruption begins.

KlugKlug can help brands track these trends early and act accordingly.

A large part of India’s influencer economy remains underexamined.

KlugKlug identifies 216,659 active creators in the Northeast, including 81,981 in beauty and fashion. Of these, 53,026 sustain engagement rates of around 3 percent, a level that is increasingly difficult to maintain in metro ecosystems.

Another fun fact: most have rich pan-Indian audiences, some very regional. Get past your metro hangover and find where India is happening.

Influencer spends continue to be concentrated in Mumbai and Delhi, shaping how creators are discovered and activated.

For brands targeting Tier 2 and Tier 3 growth, the Northeast offers lower cost per engagement, limited category clutter, and audiences with higher responsiveness.

This carousel features just 8 creators from that landscape, demonstrating consistent output, strong audience trust, and cultural relevance beyond regional boundaries.

Shein built one of the most efficient influencer-driven fashion engines on the internet.

Scroll → Spot → Produce → Sell.

Viral haul videos translated into product drops at unprecedented speed, reshaping how fashion brands scaled online and how trends moved from feeds to checkout carts.

But newer data is exposing a different pattern.

SAVANA, despite operating with significantly lower spends, is generating stronger engagement and sharper audience response than Shein across similar creator formats.

The shift is not about content volume because audiences are already saturated with identical hauls, styling edits, and trend-led fashion videos.

SAVANA’s advantage comes from tighter creator-audience alignment.

Their campaigns are built around communities that already trust the creator’s taste, style, and purchase decisions. So, the content travels more like a recommendation than a brand placement.

On this Mother’s Day, attention will once again go to the most visible names.

But beyond them, a growing set of mom creators is steadily building high-trust communities through everyday content across parenting and home.

In global markets, brands have already moved toward working with a wider pool of mom creators to drive relatability across everyday categories.

In India, this shift is still evolving.

Most campaigns here continue to rely on a familiar set of names, leaving a large part of the ecosystem underutilized despite strong engagement and audience relevance.

For brands, the opportunity lies in identifying and working with this wider pool early.

This carousel highlights a small set of such creators. To access a broader network of mom influencers across India, connect with KlugKlug.

Indian creators did not just attend Coachella this year but carried the internet with them.

So we at KlugKlug looked closer at how this visibility was actually built.

The highest volume of content came before and around the event, across flights, GRWMs, outfit trials, and day-to-day updates, where audiences stayed consistently engaged.

Most product appearances came from these moments. Creators were selecting outfits, doing makeup, and getting ready on camera, with products being shown, named, and used in real time.

Indicating that the gap is not in spend but in how brands show up before the moment.

Explore the full breakdown and insights in the carousel and follow KlugKlug for more such analysis.

Diet Coke disappeared from shelves across major Indian cities in April 2026, and consumers turned the shortage into a large-scale organic moment.

What followed is a clear example of how brand identity translates into consumer behaviour when availability is disrupted.

KlugKlug tracked this as it unfolded and observed how the conversation moved beyond core users, turning into a broader cultural moment rather than staying a product-specific reaction.

For brands, this highlights the difference between building visibility and building relevance.

One can be bought, and the other compounds over time and shows up when it matters.

Kind of happy with the free-flowing conversation, and some of you will find it useful.

On 24th April, a day after World Creator Day (April 23rd), I was asked to be interviewed by the Free Press Journal, which turned into a big monologue on all things influencer marketing.

Firstly, we started the conversation from 2013, when the creator economy in India was still niche, experimental, and easy to overlook, to how today India's creator economy has crossed ₹10,000 crore, according to KlugKlug.

From there, we moved to its evolution.
- COVID became the inflection point. Brands were forced to move from production-led content to creator-led narratives.
- At the same time, consumption had already shifted. Gen Z and millennials now drive over 70% of consumption, with attention anchored on social platforms.
- D2C brands moved early, allocating 50% of their budgets here because it delivered outcomes.

Then we discussed the structural challenges.
- Fake followers continue to distort the ecosystem.
- Targeting gaps, including gender mismatch, reduces effectiveness.
- And when content becomes too sales-heavy, engagement drops sharply.

And finally, we spoke about what is changing.

Data is becoming the filter, bringing accountability to spends.

And AI is expanding content supply at scale, reshaping how content is created and distributed.

Btw, it's quite a bit packed in on many things. Have dropped the link to the full interview in the comments.

Creator marketing can look pretty straightforward from the outside.

But once you start doing it at scale, you realise how much nuance there really is.

After working with 200+ brands, we’ve seen a mix of approaches. Some work, some don’t, and some just need a rethink.

If you’re currently:
- running one-off creator campaigns
- leaning heavily on founder content
- or figuring things out as you go

It's a good time to pause and zoom out.

What’s working better now is a more consistent approach, building long-term creator relationships, staying always-on, and using data to guide decisions rather than gut feeling.

Nothing drastic. Just a shift in how you think about it.

This International Creators Day felt like the right moment to share that.

If you’re working with creators, maybe this is your sign to build it a little more intentionally.

Everyone is chasing OTT. Nobody is talking about who is actually watching TV channels.

Hundreds of millions of Hindi-speaking Indians in UP, Bihar, MP, and Rajasthan do not pay for streaming. They watch Free-to-Air television. Every single day.

That is the FTA market. And it is enormous.

Here is what most marketing strategies get wrong about it.

OTT audiences discover content through algorithms. FTA audiences discover content through habit. That one difference changes everything about how you reach them.

OTT viewers are young, urban, and scroll-first. FTA viewers still have TV as a daily ritual for them. Afternoon. Prime time. Background noise while cooking dinner.

You cannot reach this audience with a metro influencer in Mumbai talking in polished English or Hindi. You reach them with a creator from Varanasi, Kanpur, or Aurangabad who is most relatable for them and speaks their language and lives their life.

FTA channels run on habit and nostalgia. Comedy reruns that air multiple times a day. Mythological shows with deeply loyal audiences. Crime dramas for late-night viewers. Kids content where children drive demand and mothers control the remote.

FTA audiences already love rerun shows. The pull is already there. What’s been missing is the push from the right creators to carry that momentum forward, make the content feel closer to home, and turn these shows into a daily habit.

KlugKlug is built to solve exactly this for the FTA market. It helps you find creators who are not just aligned in content, but also rooted in the same cities and audience profiles as your viewers. So the connection feels real, not forced.

No guesswork. Just clear, reliable data backing every decision.

FTA is not a legacy market. It is the largest untapped influencer marketing opportunity in India.

The brands that figure this out first will own a relationship with mass Bharat that OTT cannot touch.
