Rony Dasgupta[1] (Bengali: রনি দাশগুপ্ত; Hindi: रोनी दासगुप्ता), better known online as The RawKnee Show (or just RawKnee [raw-knee]), is an Indian YouTuber and gamer.
Channel[]
Most of the latest videos on the channel are not categorised into any particular series, and cover concurrent trending topics in the Indian internet sphere.
Gotya is a fictional character often featured in his videos, with its lore being that it manifested itself before Rony one day, and has stayed with him ever since.[2]
RIP English[]
RIP English is a long-standing series on the channel where Rony reviews clips of people speaking speaking English wrong. The most well-known segment in this series is Rony's interaction with channelthegijoeshow, a YouTuber who trolled reactors using his commentaries in broken English.
Meme reviews[]
Often introduced to as Reddit दर्शन (Reddit pilgrimage), this is where he reacts to posts on Indian meme subreddits and his own subreddit. It started with him reacting to Saiman's involvement in the PewDiePie vs T-Series drama.[3] The last video in the series was uploaded in 2020, leaving it effectively shut down.
Personal life[]
Rony is of Bengali origin living in Mumbai. He describes his young self as a "monstrous kid."[4]
He studied VFX at Maya Academy for two years until 2015,[1] but when his YouTube career went well and he received his Silver play Button, he chose YouTube as his full-time job.[4] His username "RawKnee" is a play on his first name, which often results in people mispronouncing it as "rawk-nee."
