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.
As far as today’s Indian films and series are concerned, the most anticipated theatrical release is unsurprisingly the much-hyped film ‘Pathaan’, the fourth instalment of the YRF spy universe. Helmed by Siddharth Anand, the action thriller movie features superstar Shah Rukh Khan in the titular role of a daredevil RAW agent and co-stars John Abraham and Deepika Padukone in pivotal roles.
However, when it comes to upcoming Indian OTT releases, the Sidharth Malhotra starrer spy thriller movie ‘Mission Majnu’ has outranked other Indian OTT titles on the IMDb list. Set in the 1970s, the film revolves around an undercover R&AW field agent, who must expose a secret nuclear weapons operation right in the middle of Pakistan.
The next two most anticipated Indian OTT titles on the IMDb list are the comedy drama film ‘Chhatriwali’ featuring Rakul Preet Singh in the titular role followed by Raj & DK’s crime thriller ‘Farzi’, Shahid Kapoor’s OTT debut.
