Google has released its annual roundup of the year’s most searched and no prizes for guessing which film topped the 2020 trending charts in India – it was Dil Bechara, starring actor Sushant Singh Rajput who died by suicide last June. The year’s 10 most searched films in India also include Ajay Devgn’s Tanhaji, Akshay Kumar’s Laxmii and Gulabo Sitabo, starring Amitabh Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana. Here’s a look at the list of top 10 films that made the Google charts.

Dil Bechara

Sushant Singh Rajput’s swansong premiered on Disney+Hotstar in November, months after the actor was found dead in his Mumbai home. The film, co-starring Sanjana Sanghi and directed by Mukesh Chhabra, is a Hindi remake of the novel The Fault In Our Stars.

Soorarai Pottru

The release of this Tamil film led by Suriya was postponed several times because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It finally began streaming on Amazon Prime in November.

Tanhaji

Ajay Devgn’s epic Tanhaji, based on the life of Shivaji’s famed general, released in theatres in January, a couple of months before India locked itself down against COVID-19. Kajol and Saif Ali Khan co-star.

Shakuntala Devi

Shakuntala Devi, with Vidya Balan in the lead role as the real life math genius, was meant to have released in May. Pushed out of screens by the lockdown, it eventually released on Amazon Prime in July.

Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl

Released on Netflix in August, the film became controversial on two counts – the Indian Air Force’s objection to what it claimed was negative portrayal of itself and the casting of actress Jahnvi Kapoor, prompting accusations of nepotism.
