So coming back to our question – Why Nishant Tanwar is called ‘Rider OP’ on Tanmay’s channel. Read this article and you will get to know the accurate reason.
Story Behind Nishant Tanwar’s ‘Rider OP’ Name
When Tanmay started reviewing memes and funny videos in lockdown, he had Nishant accompanying him for funny reactions. They had made a series of videos where they reviewed and reacted to TikTok videos which had Imran Khan’s song ‘Satisfya – I’m a rider, provider’ in the background. All of a sudden, after reviewing this song, Tanmay became ‘Provider OP’ and started referring to Nishant as ‘Rider OP’. This was most likely due to them reviewing videos featuring the ‘Rider, Provider’ song. Tanmay also added OP after this name. OP is slang on social media, especially among teens. On YouTube and social media, OP is referred to as something which is original.
This was the backstory and possibly the reason why Nishant Tanwar is usually being referred to as ‘Rider OP’ and his ‘Rider, Provider’ connection to the song.
Who came up with Nishant’s name of ‘Rider OP’?
