In a remarkable achievement, a 14-year-old video from India has become the country's only YouTube content to surpass 5 billion views. Released on May 10, 2011, the video for 'Shree Hanuman Chalisa' by T-Series features vocals by Hariharan and composition by Lalit Sen. This milestone video has accumulated a staggering 5,006,713,956 views, securing its place among YouTube's most-viewed videos of all time. The video's success is a testament to the enduring popularity of spiritual music in India and the devotion of the masses. In comparison, other Indian videos have struggled to reach similar view counts. The Punjabi song 'Lehenga' is the closest contender, with 1.8 billion views, followed by '52 Gaj Ka Daman' and 'Rowdy Baby', both with 1.7 billion views. Shree Hanuman Chalisa's global rankings are dominated by international hits like 'Baby Shark Dance', 'Despacito', and 'Wheels on the Bus'. However, its achievement remains a significant milestone for Indian content creators on YouTube.
