== History ==<br />
Round2hell was launched on 20 October 2016, by childhood friends Zayn Saifi, Nazim Ahmed, and Wasim Ahmad, all from Moradabad.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Verma |first=Shikha |title=Round 2 Hell: क्यों और कैसा रखा गया चैनल का नाम राउंड टू हेल, देखिए VIDEO |url=https://zeenews.india.com/hindi/zeesalaam/viral-news/round-2-hell-why-and-how-the-channel-was-named-round-to-hell-know-the-interesting-reason/1177859 |access-date=2024-12-21 |website=[[Zee News]] |language=hi}}</ref> <br />
<br />
Initially, they posted football montage videos, which received limited attention (120 views). Shift to comedy sketches in 2017, particularly ''Jio Users After 31st March'', went viral due to its commentary on [[Reliance Jio]]'s free data offer ending, marking their rise to fame.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-09-07 |title=Round2hell success story: जानें कैसे रातों रात चमक गई तीन ल |url=https://nihalnews24.com/round2hell-success-story/ |access-date=2025-04-03 |language=en-US}}</ref><br />
<br />
The channel name ''ROUND2HELL'' originated from a drifting incident Saifi likened to a "round to hell". Their early earnings were donated to charity, and despite initial parental scepticism, their success led to family support.<ref name=":4">{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2019-10-19 |title=The Inspiring Journey Of Youtube Platform Round2Hell And Its Road To 10 Million Subscribers |url=https://news.abplive.com/lifestyle/the-inspiring-journey-of-youtube-platform-round2hell-and-its-road-to-10-million-subscribers-1093334 |access-date=2024-12-21 |website=[[ABP News]] |language=en}}</ref><br />
