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.
Like last week, the topmost spot on the coveted IMDb list has once again been bagged by Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan’s ‘72 Hoorain’ which features Pavan Malhotra and Aamir Bashir in important roles. The story ostensibly focuses on brainwashing of some people in order to carry out attacks so that they get the titular 72 Hoorain.
On the second spot of the IMDb list is the highly anticipated 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 the third most anticipated Indian title on the IMDb list is the supernatural horror series ‘Adhura’. The story takes place in an elite boarding school whose dark past related to a 10-year-old student named Vedant begins to haunt a former student named Adhiraj who has come back for his 2007 batch reunion. In fact, ‘Adhura’ is the only Indian OTT title which was able to make it to the IMDb list.
