On Wednesday, IMDb revealed its list of the top 100 most viewed Indian stars over the last decade (2014-2024), featuring a mix of well-known and surprising names. Topping the list is Deepika Padukone, recognized as the most viewed Indian star on IMDb during this period.
This list was curated based on the actual page views from IMDb’s more than 250 million monthly visitors worldwide. Deepika Padukone leads the list, followed by superstar Shah Rukh Khan in second place, and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in third. Alia Bhatt and the late Irrfan, who passed away in 2020, secure the fourth and fifth spots, respectively. Completing the top ten are Aamir Khan, Sushant Singh Rajput, Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, and Akshay Kumar.
Deepika Padukone Tops IMDb most- viewed list
Deepika Padukone, who debuted alongside Shah Rukh Khan in Om Shanti Om in 2007, has enjoyed a remarkable decade. Her career highlights during this period include hits like Cocktail, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Ram Leela, and successful projects such as Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani and Padmaavat. She also starred in Imtiaz Ali’s Tamasha and made her Hollywood debut in 2017 with xXx: Return of Xander Cage, opposite Vin Diesel. In 2023, she featured in two blockbuster films, Pathaan and Jawan, both with Shah Rukh Khan. Looking ahead, Deepika will be seen in Prabhas-led Kalki 2898 AD and Rohit Shetty’s action film Singham Again, scheduled for release later this year.

IMDb stands as a beacon of credibility, reflecting the true pulse of people’s passion, interests, and preferences. This recognition is truly humbling and inspires me to continue connecting with and reciprocating the love I receive from audiences, both on and off screen, with authenticity and purpose.”
