Our friends over at Hungama have published the list of the “Most Awaited movies of 2010” after a 12 day long poll with more than 1.75 lakh votes registered.
Here’s the list
Some observations
- The results are quite obvious, the Shahrukh Khan – Kajol pairing along with the strong following that Karan Johar commands overseas, has done the trick. Name Is Khan has received the maximum votes, with Hrithik Roshan’s Kites a close second.
- Hrithik Roshan has two movies in the Top 3, both his 2010 releases have made it to Top 5 list wordwide – proves yet again, the enormous fan following of the man.
- Salman Khan is next with Veer making it to the No 2 in UK, overall settles for the No 4 spot.
- Ra 1 strangely has performed pretty poorly, No 5 in UK – No 6 in US – No 7 in India.
- What’s even stranger is Akshay Kumar’s position in the list, down at No 8 below Raavan and Raajneeti.
- Unlike the last two years Aamir Khan has no biggie this year, instead he has a small budget film Dhobi Ghaat at No 10.
Overall, My Name Is Khan, Kites and Guzaarish are the biggest movies of the year as Shahrukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan battle it out at the box office. Salman’s only release this year (most probably) is Veer, which releases tomorrow.
2010 will also be a very important year for Akshay, with more than 3 films lined up for release.

Hmmm i feel Guzaarish will be better than kites, Atleast after i watched Kites trailor.
And regarding Akshay`s position- Chance pe dance is next to it in UK . Even cartoon Kuchie kuchie hotha he in top 10;) wat bout Dhobi Ghaat?;) so d position doesnt really matter…;)
Ya ppl will watch akshay`s movies after d reviews from nw for sure..;)
if content is good it will work,otherwise not.who cares about the list.
great.. my name is khan roxxxxxxxxx srkajol and karan will make history in bollywood……
@Indicine
Hiii if you and bollyhoodhungama.com have paired and signed some deal to publish each other articles. I hate bollyhoodhungama and I am true fan of indicine but why you guys seem to copy from bollywoodhungama.com.
This article is good and I cant resist myself seeing it but I have liked it more if you have started it.
I hope for some innovative polls and articles from you in 2010 and not this copy paste crap.
bollywood hungama is true.. my name is khan is most awaited movie of the bollywood ever……….
srk roxxxxxxxxx
2010 seems to b the year of hrithik.
most awaited movie my name is khan but movie is not good report & poor music,poor script complet flop movie
the movies i’m waiting for the most are :
My Name Is Khan : SRK’s role seems really intresting! that’s the only reason why i wanna see this movie.
i’m not a big fan of the SRKajol jodi, and after seeing the trailers, i think Kajol’s role is a little bit there for Nothing! It’s clear that the story is based only on KHAN, so I hope that i’m wrong, and that kajol will play an indispensible role in the movie.
Ishqiya : personaly, i’m a huge fan of Vidya Balan. She looks really great in the promos of the film, and the story seems Original in a way. The 2nd reason why i wan’t to see this movie, is beacuse of Nasseerudin Shah, he has a very good acting, and the combo vidya-arshad-nasseerudin seems quite good.
Karthik Calling Karthik : farhan will surely rock, and I realy hope that deepika will do better than her last movies because she wasn’t good lattely!!
this shows d popularity of akshay..haha..lol at akshay fans
completely rubish, ravan rajneeti is more awaited than housefull, dhobi ghat, tees maar khan. Big lol for this post
Chance pe Dance is 13 th in this poll……..
but a WEEKEND of 6.00 Crores…..((in india))
while 7 on U.K list but a WEEKEND of Rs. 52.96 lacs…that’s a record breaking opening..
what a good poll……
all were waiting for Chance pe Dance ……that’s prove it…….good job…..
that means
14 Rann
15 Agent Vinod
16 Delhi Belly
17 Koochie Koochie Hota Hai
18 Ishqiya
19 Stepmom’s Remake
and all bottom movies will get lower openning than Chance pe Dance ….
if that’s true than 2010 is the last year of BOLLYWOOD…
Teen Patti
oh…..and did u know that the same poll was conducted last year by the same site…..
and Yuvraj was at no. 4 and collected 7.85 Crores ((india))WEEKEND….
and raaz-TMC at 50 th position and collected 15.00Crores ((india))WEEKEND…..
soo…..now u judge……
@ Ankur. dis time i agree wid u yaar.
CPD is 13th on da list and it tanked on da first day. lol
so dese polls r not really accurate.
@ Naveed :
that’s true! dese polls r not really accurate.
After all, we can’t judge any movie before watching it! Sometimes the movie that we expect the most turned to be a total crap, and sometimes the movie that we did not want to see became the super hit of the year!
I’m waiting for only 5 movies:
1) My Name is Khan
2) Kites
3) Guzaarish
4) RA1 and
5) Ravan
well sharukh is grt actor but in my name is khan he is acting over..donig some etc over things which is not lookin good..and songs are also not tht much good and theme of the movie is almost same lyk newyork and qurbaan . so i think this movie will manage only average collection..n if we see VEER looks better than this on every point so i think veer gonna rock this year not my name is khan.
Shows Akshay Kumars popularity has gone down the drain, how an actor can be king and the nothing in one take, wow!!
SRK rules from top, the SRK-Kajol jodi as Indicine said is working wonders. Very Good to see Hritik Roshan there, yes!! Could just be his year, cant wait for Kites and Guzaarish!!
Some people reckon that theses lists are not right, (prosbably because My Name is Khan is top and not Veer), but wasnt 3 idiots, My Name is Khan and Kites the top 3 last year when the same site counducted the poll? (MNIK and Kites where thought to be releasing in 2009 before getting pushed back, for any smart ass). I reckon these polls are quite correct, Rajeeti is there aswell. People saying Chance Pe Dance flopped, well this list is for the “MOST AWAITED” films, not films “WITH THE BEST CONTENT”, CPD had poor content an it is not even present in india top 10.
MY NAME IS KHAN SUPER BLOCKBUSTER SRKAJOL AND KJO KING KHAN WOWWWWW WILLL BEAT 3I ANY DAY!!!!!!!!
Well regarding Chance Pe Dance, these pre-release polls are all about its stars. Shahid Kapoor is a popular actor and Chance Pe Dance did look promising sometime back. The promos lacked freshness, the marketing strategies were poor, which resulted in a disastrous opening. And when the eventual verdict was so negative, nothing could save it.
You cant except Dhobi Ghat to top the list, not when most aren’t even aware that it has Aamir in the lead.
indicine
Aamir is not leading actor in Dhobi Ghat , he has a small side role.
Aamir’s next release in main lead is Lajjo with Kareena Kapoor and it didnt start yet so hopefully it will release next year.
At first i wanna say hi to all
Well i just wanna see My Name Is Khan this yr beside that i also want to see Kites
Ranjita
these movies should be good in 2010:
1) Raajneeti

4) Rann
5) Action Replayy
6) Agent Vinod
7) Dhobi Ghaat
8) Love, sex aur dhokha

10)Remake of Italian Job
top 5 movies of 2010 are as follows
1.VEER
2.Dabanng
3.Kites

Well, SRK and Kajol Can’t Do Anything New This Year… And I Think MNIK Will Collect Around 80 or 90Crs, Not More Than This. And For Kites… It Will Break The Record Of 3 Idiots. Guzaarish Will Be Around 100 Crs. And For The Best Actor Award… Hrithik Will Win Cuz… In Year…2003,2006 and 2009 SRK Didn’t Get It. If We Compapre SRK and Hrithik… Hrithik Is Better Than Him These Days…. :D
There is no surprise to see mnik on top. Srk rules everywhere. I am sure mnik will break the all records.
wow compleltely true all the polls proves that my namer is khan is the highest grosser ever go shahrukh go we are behind you the only living legend out there king of acting amiris just acopycut actor even in editing look for no man’s land banner and compare it to rang de basanti’s and you will realise the truth
