IMDb's Top 10 Most Anticipated Indian Movies of 2025: Baaghi 4 Leads Ahead of OG, Param Sundari, Jolly LLB 3 (As of August 20)

Mumbai, August 20 - Producer Sajid Nadiadwala's action thriller Baaghi 4, scheduled to release on September 5, is the most-anticipated Indian movie of 2025, according to IMDb's real-time popularity, as of August 20. The film has taken the top spot with a commanding 24.5% share of audience interest. ## The Tiger Shroff actioner, part of the popular Baaghi franchise, has been drawing audience interest, ever since the teaser was released recently. The film’s dominance on the anticipation charts highlights the continued appeal of mass action cinema in India. ## Close behind Baaghi 4 is Pawan Kalyan’s They Call Him OG, securing the second spot with 13.8%. The Telugu biggie, helmed by Sujeeth, has been generating enormous hype, particularly due to Pawan Kalyan's return in a stylish gangster avatar. Scheduled to release on September 25, the movie promises to be a big-screen action spectacle. ## At number three is Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor's romantic comedy Param Sundari (12.4%). The movie is slated to release on August 29. Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi's Jolly LLB 3 (9.9%), scheduled for September 19 release, finds itself in fourth position currently, proving that courtroom drama-comedies still hold wide audience appeal even in a crowded lineup of mega-budget entertainers. ## The fifth to tenth positions show a diverse mix of genres and industries, signalling how anticipation in Indian cinema is no longer confined to just one region or style. Anime-inspired Mirai (9.5%) has carved its way into the fifth slot, while Lokah Chapter One: Chandra (8.7%) and The Bengal Files (6.9%) further add to the range with fantasy storytelling and politically charged drama, respectively.## Raghu Dakat (5.3%) and Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1 (5.2%) showcase how period dramas and franchise-driven sequels continue to attract attention, with Kaantha (3.9%) rounding off the top ten. The rating of the top 10 movies is based on IMDb's page views, which keep changing. ## Stay tuned...

Kamal Haasan's 'Thug Life' Gets One of The Lowest Ratings In The Opening Weekend

Chennai, June 7 - Indian cinema legends, actor Kamal Haasan and director Mani Ratnam reunited after 38 years for a gangster action drama film Thug Life, which hit the big screen on June 5. The reunion of the two was expected to script a blockbuster, but things have turned into a nightmare for the duo. ## Thug Life was a keenly awaited film, and it generated some hype with decent to good pre-sales. However, despite the big promises, everything has gone wrong for the film since its release, and it seems that the audience has outrightly rejected it. ## The word of mouth for the movie has been poor from the first show, which resulted in below than the expected opening, followed by a big drop on the second day as the total collection of the movie is around 50 crore gross after 2 days. ## Even though there is a holiday on Saturday and Sunday, the chances of a rebound for the movie are almost out of the equation. The audience reception is poor, as the current Google rating for the movie is under 3 out of 10, while IMDb ratings are below 5, which has made things worse and will continue to do so. ## The Google and IMDb ratings of Thug Life are among the lowest for the film in its opening weekend, and it is going down rapidly. There are chances the movie will likely finish under 100 crore gross collection at the worldwide box office. It might cross this cross, but the overall result has already been sealed, which is a disaster. ## The film is produced by Raaj Kamal Films International and Madras Talkies, and it also stars Silambarasan, Trisha Krishnan, Abhirami, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nassar, Ali Fazal, Rohit Saraf, and Baburaj in key roles. ## Stay tuned...
