IMDb lists are an efficient way to share movie, TV and celebrity picks with other IMDb users, keep a record of what one is watching, or discover what to watch. They are a powerful tool for sharing recommendations, whether from industry experts or passionate fans. The lists feature allows for continuous updates, enabling customers to add new names and titles as they discover fresh content. Through this feature, millions of entertainment fans discover new content daily.
Hansal’s lists come on the heels of his March post on X, where he cautioned people against predicting doom for Bollywood. “The industry isn’t dying. It’s waiting to be disrupted. The problem isn’t the audience losing interest. It’s that investment is being funneled into the safe, the recycled, the formulaic. The future of Hindi cinema lies in betting on raw talent, bold storytelling, and directors who can take a script and direct the hell out of it,” he wrote.
Subsequently, he shared a list of promising, emerging male actors whose talent he has great faith in. He has now expanded this into a comprehensive list of Breakout Male Talent in India on IMDb, featuring IMDb “Breakout Star” STARmeter Award winners Adarsh Gourav and Zahan Kapoor.
