Rising star Triptii Dimri has secured the No. 1 spot on IMDb‘s Most Popular Indian Stars of 2024 ranking, with Deepika Padukone following at No. 2. The annual list, which tracks actual page views from IMDb’s 250 million monthly visitors worldwide, reflects both established performers and emerging talent in India’s entertainment sphere.
Dimri’s ascent comes on the heels of her appearances in three features this year: “Bad Newz,” “Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video,” and “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.”
“It is indeed a huge honor to be ranked No. 1 on the IMDb Most Popular Indian Stars of 2024 list,” Dimri said. “This recognition is a testament to the incredible support of my fans and the hard work of everyone I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with.”
Industry veteran Deepika Padukone maintained strong viewer interest with three major releases, including her Telugu debut in “Kalki 2898 AD,” alongside “Fighter” and “Singham Again.”
Ishaan Khatter landed at No. 3, bolstered by his role in the international series “The Perfect Couple,” where he worked with Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber.
The list features notable developments across India’s entertainment landscape. Sobhita Dhulipala (No. 5) marked her Hollywood entry with “Monkey Man” and took on dubbing duties for Padukone’s Telugu dialogue in “Kalki 2898 AD.” Sharvari (No. 6) delivered three releases – “Munjya,” “Maharaj,” and “Vedaa” – and received IMDb’s “Breakout Star” STARmeter Award.
Alia Bhatt (No. 9) maintained her presence on the list for the third consecutive year, producing and starring in “Jigra” while making her Paris Fashion Week debut.
The complete top 10 includes Shah Rukh Khan (No. 4), Aishwarya Rai Bachchan (No. 7), Samantha (No. 8), and Prabhas (No. 10).
