4. The Fine Brothers
The Fine Brothers are famous in YouTube for their “Kids React”, “Teens React” and “Elders React” videos.

Shirley Setia is an emerging Bollywood sensation on YouTube. She creates covers of many popular Bollywood songs, such as “Tum hi ho” from Aashiqui 2. Her voice is very unique and different as compared to most voices in Bollywood, and I feel that her voice is certainly one that is very beautiful.
