Ambrish Verma Earns IMDb Breakout Star Award for “Sapne Vs Everyone”

EXCLUSIVE: Sapne Vs Everyone actor Ambrish Verma has been honored with an IMDb ‘Breakout Star’ STARmeter award.

This award recognizes talent whose popularity on IMDb has surged, a distinction previously awarded to stars such as Zahan Kapoor, Sharvari, Ayo Edebiri, Maya Hawke and Regé‑Jean Page.

Verma wrote, directed and starred in the Hindi‑language series Sapne Vs Everyone, which launched a second season in March. The show, created for Indian streamer and online channel The Viral Fever, debuted on YouTube before moving to Prime Video.

The psychological drama follows Paramvir Singh Cheema and Verma as two ambitious men navigating cut‑throat worlds to achieve their dreams in acting and real estate, respectively. Verma’s standout performance propelled him to the No. 1 and No. 2 spots on IMDb’s Popular Indian Celebrities list for two consecutive weeks.

Since the release of the second season in May, Sapne Vs Everyone has entered IMDb’s Top 250 TV Shows list at No. 171.

“This award means a lot to me because it’s decided by the people,” Verma said. “In today’s landscape, where some rewards can be swayed by lobbying or a single nomination, this is earned solely by creating something that audiences truly find worthy. It feels similar to the satisfaction of a good IMDb rating for *Sapne Vs Everyone*. I’m extremely proud of it.”

“Recently, I was also ranked No. 1 on the IMDb Popular Indian Celebrities list,” he added. “For someone like me, who has stayed far from the industry for so long, it was a remarkable moment. I know I received this because of the show—people watched it, appreciated the work, and were motivated to look me up on IMDb.”

“It’s astonishing to realize I can top that rank, especially when I scroll down and see the caliber of personalities listed there. These achievements give me confidence that with continued effort and doing things the right way, more opportunities will arise.”
