Globally renowned movies database entertainment portal IMDb houses a list/widget of the most anticipated new Indian movies and shows (both theatrical and OTT) that ascertains the real-time popularity of that title. This is determined by the number of pageviews these titles are generating on IMDb. Each title is then ranked by IMDb as per the aggregate number of pageviews.
The topmost spot on the IMDb list has been bagged by Atlee’s action thriller movie ‘Jawan’ starring Shah Rukh Khan in the lead role. The film’s story ostensibly revolves around a wronged man, a soldier who makes it his mission to exact revenge from those responsible for his situation. The movie also features Vijay Sethupathi, Deepika Padukone, and Nayanthara in important roles.
On the second spot of the IMDb list is the ‘OMG’ spiritual sequel titled ‘OMG 2’ and it features Akshay Kumar and Pankaj Tripathi in major roles. The social comedy movie’s plot is apparently about how an unhappy man advocates for comprehensive education to be made compulsory in institutions with the help of Lord Shiv.
And the third most anticipated Indian title on the IMDb list is the Gadar sequel titled ‘Gadar 2’. Set against the backdrop of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, the film’s plot follows the journey of Tara Singh (Sunny Deol), who returns to the neighbouring country in order to get his son back.
And as far as Indian OTT titles are concerned, two titles namely Nitesh Tiwari’s ‘Bawaal’ starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor and the thriller web series ‘The Jengaburu Case’ have made it to the IMDb most anticipated list.
