PM Modi ahead of world leaders

Globally, PM Modi is way ahead of world leaders like US President Joe Biden (38.1 million followers), current ruler of Dubai HH Sheikh Mohammed (11.2 million followers) and Pope Francis (18.5 million followers). Given PM Modi's popularity on X, world leaders are keen to connect with PM Modi on social media. Because connecting with him significantly increases their own followers, engagement, views and reposts. We have seen this in Italy and Austria recently as well.

More followers than popular players

PM Modi is also ahead of the world's popular players in terms of followers on X. PM Modi has more followers than Virat Kohli (64.1 million), Brazilian footballer Neymar Jr. (63.6 million) and American basketball player LeBron James (52.9 million). PM Modi is also ahead of celebrities like Taylor Swift (95.3 million), Lady Gaga (83.1 million) and Kim Kardashian (75.2 million). PM Modi's X handle has seen an increase of nearly 30 million users in the last three years.

PM Modi also dominates YouTube and Instagram

Apart from X, he also has influence on YouTube and Instagram. PM Modi has 25 million subscribers on YouTube while he has more than 91 million followers on Instagram. PM Modi joined the X (formerly Twitter) platform in 2009. PM Modi has constantly used this social media platform for constructive engagement. He is very active on it. He follows many common citizens, interacts with them, responds to their messages and has never blocked anyone. PM Modi has always used this platform in an organic way without resorting to paid promotions or bots.
