In a defining moment for India’s creator economy and digital financial education space, Abhinab Das, the visionary behind Chalo Seekho, was crowned Best Financial Influencer of the Year at the prestigious 5th edition of the Influence Exchange Confex & Awards Series, held at The Leela, Mumbai.
The glittering event, attended by top digital creators, influencer marketing agencies, and brand leaders, recognized Das for his outstanding contribution in simplifying finance for the common Indian and building a strong, trusted digital platform that empowers lakhs with financial knowledge.
With this honor, Abhinab joins the ranks of India’s top-tier digital voices—but what makes his journey stand out is the authenticity and impact of his content, which goes beyond views and likes to truly transform lives.
From Bhubaneswar to National Recognition
Hailing from Bhubaneswar, Odisha, Abhinab Das is a self-taught financial educator and content creator who launched Chalo Seekho as a humble initiative to make finance understandable for all—regardless of educational background. Over the past few years, his platform has exploded in popularity, amassing over 330,000 followers on Instagram and nearing 100,000 YouTube subscribers.
Abhinab’s short videos, relatable analogies, and no-jargon tutorials have made concepts like savings, credit cards, insurance, stock trading, and online income accessible to young professionals, students, and even first-time earners across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.
“Finance is not just about growing your money—it’s about reclaiming your power,” said Abhinab in his acceptance speech. “I’m grateful that Chalo Seekho has become a safe space where people can learn, ask, and grow.”
A Platform That Educates, Empowers, and Evolves
The Chalo Seekho brand has grown far beyond social media. In 2024, Abhinab launched a structured digital course hosted on his website, teaching users how to build multiple income streams online and develop a roadmap toward financial freedom.
Alongside his wife and business partner Swati Choudhury, he co-founded Uplinemind Digital Services Pvt. Ltd., which now handles digital education content, influencer campaigns, and brand collaborations in the finance and marketing space. Their approach is deeply rooted in value-driven content, making them one of the most respected creator-led startups in this vertical.
What separates Abhinab from many other influencers is his community-first approach. He regularly conducts live sessions, financial Q&As, and even offers free PDFs and tools to help viewers manage their money better.
