10 most promising newcomers of 2014

Mohit Marwah in Fugly: He immolates himself at the start of the film

Kriti Sanon in HeroPanti: Confident and sassy, Kriti has quickly moved on to Akshay Kumar in Singh Is Bling. Overnight stardom, and richly deserved.

Aditya Seal in Purani Jeans: Though the film sank without a trace, Aditya’s performance as the young, troubled, spoilt, rich brat grappling with self-destructive tendencies was arresting.

Patralekha in Citylights: As the rural wife and mother grappling with city reality Patralekha at times reminded us of Sharmila Tagore in Satyajit Ray’s films

Tiger Shroff in HeroPanti: He can dance, he can fight, he can do serious and he can do light. Yup, Tiger is born to burn bright.

  • Freddy Daruwala in Holiday: A chilling menacing terror mastermind played at just the right pitch. Welcome to the real world.
  • Armaan Jain in Lekar Hum Deewana Dil: The family that gave us Prithviraj Kapoor, Raj Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor, Ranbir and Kareena Kapoor...Armaan has that spark too, waiting to be ignited.
  • Tahir Bhasin in Mardaani: He looked like a computer whizkid working in a multinational. Instead he was a flesh trader. Tahir’s suave sub-human act made our flesh crawl.
  • Mohit Marwah in Fugly: He immolates himself at the start of the film. Luckily his career didn’t go up in flames.
  • Fawad Khan in Khubsoorat: It’s not just Sonam Kapoor who got “gande gande khayaal” after seeing him. Girls across Hindustan swooned over this Pakistani import. A star was born.
  • Manish Dayal in 100 Foot Journey: Standing up to stalwarts like Helen Mirren and Om Puri, young Manish playing a chef, gave us a performance to chew on.
