Introduction to Gaming:
On June 25th, 2019, Aditya Sawant published a video on his YouTube channel Dynamo Gaming in which he talked in detail about his offline life and how he was introduced to gaming.
Aditya and his passion for gaming started fairly early during his school days. According to Dynamo, his gaming journey began when he was in the 6th grade. One Saturday afternoon Adi and one of his friends came across a shop a couple of km away from their school. Dynamo describes the shop as something like a game parlor where people were playing video games on TV. This intrigued Dynamo and he came back the very next day to watch people play. The day after, Aditya saved his tiffin money and went to the shop to play games with it. For the next three years from 6th to 9th grade, this became his regular routine. Aditya would save his tiffin money and use it to play games in the shop with it.

He used to upload playthroughs of a wide range of video games, which included the likes of Battlefield, battlefield 2, battlefield 4, Dota 2, and G.T.A. However, his content didn’t get many views, and Dynamo gaming remained unknown to the Indian gaming community.
First PUBG Gameplay:
With the coming of Jio’s affordable high-speed mobile internet, India saw a massive increase in the number of daily internet users. Which, in turn, helped Mobile games like PUBG gain a lot of popularity. Dynamo gaming posted his first PUBG gameplay on his channel in early 2017.

The same year in August, Dynamo gaming live-streamed PUBG Mobile for the first time.

In August 2017, Dynamo gaming posted a video of PUBG Mobile gameplay that went viral. The playthrough was the first video of Dynamo gaming that gained so many views. After that video, the channel saw a steady rise in viewership and Dynamo became known as a PUBG Mobile gamer to the masses.
Aditya disclosed later in an interview with Tech2 that he still watches the video, and he feels terrific. Since the viral clip, multiple people came to visit him in each game. “Meeting fans like this is a bit weird, but it is great feeling none the less” the YouTuber explains.
The rise in the Popularity of Dynamo and Streaming:
With the increase in popularity of PUBG Mobile, Dynamo gaming’s popularity also skyrocketed. Dynamo’s flawless headshots using Kar 98k became especially popular among his fans and followers. Soon enough, Dynamo became a household name of almost all Indian gamers.

Controversies Surrounding Dynamo Gaming
Like most people who shot to fame, Adi also had his fair shares of controversies. From the early days of his PUBG Mobile live streaming, Aditya, better known by his in-game name Dynamo, used to play PUBG Mobile using emulators. Many YouTubers disliked this, and they started trolling Dynamo Gaming. Some also spread rumours about how Dynamo gaming uses dishonest means (cheat codes/hacks) to win games.
