IMDb, the world’s most popular and authoritative source for information on movies, TV shows, and celebrities, today unveiled the Most Anticipated Indian Movies of 2025, as determined by the actual page views of the more than 250 million monthly visitors to IMDb worldwide.
Rashmika Mandanna becomes the only actress to feature on the list with three films where she plays the lead role. Leading the IMDb list is Sikandar (No. 1), an action drama directed by A.R. Murugadoss, where Rashmika stars alongside Salman Khan. The historical drama Chhaava (No. 10), starring Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika, is scheduled for a February release. Adding to her movies releasing this year, Rashmika will also star in Thama (No. 17), a much-anticipated horror-comedy alongside Ayushmann Khurrana, slated for a Diwali release.
Expressing her gratitude, Rashmika said, “I feel incredibly blessed and grateful to see my films featured on IMDb’s list of the Most Anticipated Indian Movies of 2025. 2024 ended on a high note with the overwhelming response to Pushpa 2, and I couldn’t have asked for a better start to 2025, with three of my upcoming titles making it to the list. It has always been my dream to work on stories that resonate with audiences, and this recognition motivates me to keep pushing my boundaries. A heartfelt thank you to my amazing well wishers and the incredible teams behind these films for making this possible.”
