1. Himansh Kohli: Makes his debut in music baron turned film producer Bhushan Kumar's wife Divya Khosla's `young`(read: jejune) film Yaariyan.
USP: High visibility ensured because of producer's clout.
Downer: Makes his debut with a bunch of other newcomers who may dilute his debut. Remember the very promising Pulkit Samrat making a vague impression in the ensemble cast of Fukrey?
2.Daisy Shah: handpicked by Salman Khan as his leading leady in Jai Ho.
USP: Remember what Salman's mentoring did to Katrina's career?
Downer: Remember what Salman's mentoring did to Sneha Ullal and Zarine Khan?
3. Hasleen Kaur: The former runner-up for Miss Femina Miss India contest accompanies Suneel Darshan's son Shiv in his debut film Karle Pyar Karle
4. Shiv Darshan: Suneel Darshan's son makes his debut in his father's musical drama.

Downer: Father's launching sons seldom work at the box-office unless it's Hrithik Roshan.
5.Mansavi Mamgai: The model turns to acting with Prabhudheva's new musical actioner Action Jackson.
USP: It's a high-profile film where she has Ajay Devgan as a co-star.
Downer: How much of a role can a newcomer have a film that stars Prabhudheva's favorite Sonakshi Sinha, plus Yami Gautam?
6. Monali Thakur: Indian idol singer gives a gut-wrenching performance as a child prostitute in Nagesh Kukunoor's Laxmi.
USP: A performance-oriented realistic debut performance never fails(e.g Jaya Bhaduri in Guddi).
Downer: Singers turned actors seldom succeed.
7. Patralekha: She makes her debut opposite thevery accomplished Rajkumar Yadav in Citylights.
USP: Producers Mahesh Bhatt and Mukesh Bhatt have earlier re-launched heroines like Kangna Ranaut and Mallika Sherawat.
Downer: It's rustic role.Audiences like their heroines urbane and chic.
8. Tiger Shroff: Jackie Shroff's cub roars in Hero-panti. This Sabir Ali-directed action love story is bound to be special.
USP: Tiger is trained in the martial arts.He will give Vidyut Jamwal a run for his money.
Downer: None
9. Kirti Sanon: Model turns actress and gets a dream launch opposite Tiger Shroff.
USP: Sexy models are always welcome.

10. Sooraj Pancholi: Salman Khan launches Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab's son in the remake of Subhash Ghai's Hero.
