Over the last 10 days, CNN-IBN has asked you to tell us who you think is the most promising newcomer, with maximum potential in tinsel town - the actor you have your hopes pinned on, the star you are expecting to shine in the months ahead. We asked you to vote for your choice from a selection of six candidates we shortlisted.

The six newcomers who were in the running for their smashing debuts were:

Imran Khan received rave reviews for his performance in Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and a record opening at the box office.

Ranbir Kapoor might not have had a dream debut with Saawariya but his clean, good looks and his impish smile have the filmmakers lining up.

Legendary singer Mukesh's grandson, Neil Nitin Mukesh signed up for an unconventional debut and though Johnny Gaddar didn't rock the box office, the youngster made quite an impact and is ready to swim against the tide if need be.

Harman Baweja has been dubbed as a Hrithik Roshan clone and his Rs 50 crore debut, Love Story 2050, did not make the right impact. But with filmmakers like Ashutosh Gowariker and Sanjay Leela Bhansali swearing by him, here is a star to watch out for.

Rajeev Khandelwal defied critics and made the switch from small screen to the silver screen with his debut Aamir and received rave reviews for his performance.
