Gaming Star ScoutOP Enters Bigg Boss 20: Earns INR 30 Lakh Monthly
Tanmay Singh, known by his gaming moniker ScoutOP, entered the Bigg Boss 20 house as a contestant. He's the first mainstream Indian esports personality to join the reality show. In an interview with host Salman Khan, Singh revealed that he earns around INR 30 lakh per month from live streaming, competitive gaming, brand sponsorships, and team ownership.
Singh was born on July 30, 1996, in Valsad, Gujarat. He initially played football but shifted to digital sports after an injury. Singh began his professional gaming career in 2018 during the rise of PUBG Mobile in India. He represented top esports organizations such as Team IND and Fnatic before co-founding Team XSpark, which won the Battlegrounds Mobile India Series (BGIS) in 2024.
ScoutOP's transition from virtual battlegrounds to unscripted television generated interest across the Indian digital ecosystem. The show aired video messages from prominent digital creators, including CarryMinati and Elvish Yadav, wishing him luck inside the house.
