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 coveted IMDb list has 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 Vidya Balan’s whodunnit ‘Neeyat’. The film’s story revolves around a murder which takes place at a billionaire birthday bash. Now, an unconventional detective must use her astute investigative skills to unravel the mystery by examining the clues and several suspects.
On the OTT front, just one Indian title namely the legal drama Disney+ Hotstar series ‘The Trial’ starring Kajol has made it to IMDb’s most anticipated titles list.
