Elvish Yadav is a Gurugram-based Indian singer, streamer, and YouTuber. Salman Khan presented the reality show ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’, which brought Elvish to the attention of the country. He was a wild card participant when he first appeared in the competition. Since starting his YouTube channel in 2016, Elvish has amassed 13.2 million subscribers and 1.16 billion views on the main site as of August 2023. At first, he renamed his channel The Social Factory instead of Elvish Yadav. His writing primarily concentrates on flash fiction and creative short films.
Police began investigating the matter after receiving a report from Gaurav Gupta, an Animal Welfare Officer of the People for Animals (PFA) NGO. Gupta said that Elvish and other content makers had shot movies in Noida farmhouses featuring snakes and venom.
According to the PFA officer, these individuals also threw illicit rave parties where foreign ladies were invited to use drugs, including snake venom. Following their discovery of Gaurav Gupta’s allegation, Maneka Gandhi’s PFA contacted Elvish Yadav. “We got to know because influencer Elvish Yadav has been promoting it (the videos),” Maneka Gandhi stated in an interview. We must put him under arrest.
