Year-Ender: Top Bollywood Stars of 2024
The year 2024 brought significant changes to Bollywood, with several films turning into massive hits while others failed to impress. Some actors delivered superhits, and a few newcomers managed to carve a niche for themselves, going beyond the usual dominance of star kids. IMDb has released the list of the most talked-about and popular Indian actors of 2024. Let’s explore who made it to the top 10…
IMDb’s rankings are based on data from more than 250 million viewers worldwide (monthly). This year, Trupti Dimri emerged as the most talked-about actress, surpassing stalwarts like Alia Bhatt and Deepika Padukone. In 2024, Trupti starred in three major films: Bad News, Viki Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
Yamini Patodia, Head of IMDb India, stated, “The list of the most famous Indian actors of 2024 highlights the emergence of future stars. It reflects the diversity of Indian entertainment, with newcomers like Trupti Dimri and Sharvari sharing space with veterans like Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. This year’s list also underscores how Indian cinema and its actors are gaining international recognition.”
Expressing gratitude to her fans, Trupti said, “It is an honor to be ranked number one on IMDb’s Most Popular Indian Actors of 2024 list. This wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my fans. I’ve worked on many projects this year, and I promise to continue entertaining the audience in the future.”
