In the late 90s, Gulshan Kumar was looked up to as the king of devotional songs. His channel T-Series, which was involved in a tug-of-war with famous YouTuber Pwedipie, finally became the most subscribed YouTube channel in the world. 

Speaking about the rise in popularity of the Hanuman Chalisa, Bhusan Kumar says, "People turn to and recite the Hanuman Chalisa during their low phase. With the COVID-19 pandemic, we are all in the midst of a challenging situation, and the Hanuman Chalisa helps us to deal with pain and hardship and gives us the courage and strength to face problems. I'm overwhelmed with the love this devotional video has received. We, at T-Series have always focused, supported and brought to audiences devotional music right from the time of the inception of the company."
