IMDb released its list of the top 10 most popular Indian movies of 2023 that were released theatrically between January 1 and November 6 this year. The website said that their year-end list is based on page views of the more than 200 million visitors to the site worldwide. Films ranging across languages, such as Jawan and Leo, made the cut this year, with these particular titles having a user rating of 5 or more, making them a clear fan-favourite.
#1 Jawan
Jawan is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film.
Atlee’s Shah Rukh Khan–starrer Jawan topped the list, and the director is on cloud nine about the fact. He says, “Jawan is a captivating action entertainer that portrays the emotional odyssey of a man determined to rectify social injustices. The reception and love it received from audiences worldwide were overwhelming.
Jawan is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film co-written and directed by Atlee in his Hindi film debut. Red Chillies Entertainment, led by Gaurav Verma and Gauri Khan, is producing it. The film stars Shah Rukh Khan in a dual role as a father and son who team up to rectify corruption in society. Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Deepika Padukone (billed as a special appearance), Priyamani, and Sanya Malhotra appear in supporting roles.
#2 Pathaan
Yet another Shah Rukh-starrer joined the list this year – this one directed by Siddharth Anand and marking the entry of a new R&AW agent in the YRF spy universe. The film saw him play a R&AW agent, who forms a special unit to complete a mission and stop a terrorist (John Abraham) from wreaking havoc in the country.
#3 Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani
The film stars Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt as a couple with contrasting personalities.
This Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt-starrer won hearts for all the right reasons this year, and director Karan Johar says, “The team and I are overwhelmed with the love and warmth we have received for the film. To be on this list of IMDb is a massive validation, and I feel more energised as a filmmaker now.
#4 Leo
The list would feel lacking without the newest member of the intriguing Lokesh Cinematic Universe, which was preceded by Kaithi and Vikram. Vijay and Trisha play the main roles in the Tamil film Leo, which is an adaptation of the 1997 graphic novel A History of Violence and the 2005 English film.
#5 OMG 2
OMG 2 is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language satirical comedy-drama film.
The sequel to OMG! served a much-needed and important lesson when it comes to sex education. Starring Pankaj Tripathi and Akshay Kumar in the lead roles, it looks like this satirical comedy was a worthy sequel to a hit film.
#6 Jailer
Jailer is a 2023 Indian Tamil-language action comedy film.
This Nelson Dilipkumar directorial saw Rajinikanth play a retired Jailer whose idyllic existence receives a massive blow. The Tamil film also saw cameos by Kannada star Shiva Rajkumar and Malayalam star Mohanlal, much to the delight of fans.
#7 Gadar2
Gadar 2 is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language period action drama film.
When Gadar: Ek Prem Katha released in 2001, it revived Sunny Deol’s career. Years later, the sequel did the same, with the Ameesha Patel co-starrer taking the story forward from where the prequel left off.
#8: The Kerala Story
The Kerala Story is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language drama film directed by Sudipto Sen.
Adah Sharma plays Shalini Unnikrishnan, a college student from Kerala who loses her identity, faith and life due to religious extremism. The film might have left the audience split, but the title was clearly popular enough to make the list.
#9 Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar
This Luv Ranjan rom-com left the audience split as much as his previous films did. Ranbir Kapoor plays a carefree businessman and womaniser, while Shraddha Kapoor plays an ambitious chartered accountant in this comedic film.
#10 Bholaa
Bholaa is the Hindi remake of the 2019 Tamil film Kaithi. Ajay Devgn plays a truck driver who has been released from jail but finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy much bigger than him. The entire story takes place in the span of a night.
