In the dynamic world of social media, some personalities never fail to grab the limelight. X (formerly Twitter) has turned into the virtual town square where news begins, opinions are forged, and trends are created. The most recent figures by TweetBlinderX reveal that April 2025 witnessed a vibrant blend of political leaders, cricket heroes, and Bollywood stars being the most discussed Indian personalities.

Top by posts done by Indians on the 1st through April 30th of 2025, here's who trended by sparking talks in and across India as of these weeks.

1. Narendra Modi (@narendramodi)

The Indian Prime Minister remains at the forefront not only of the government but also of the internet debate. Whether it's big-ticket policy declarations, international diplomacy, or street rallies in the run-up to the 2024 general elections, Narendra Modi is always the name that figures in online discussions.
His social media campaign, coupled with his keen presence and orations, keeps him at the forefront of public awareness.

2. MS Dhoni (@msdhoni)

The legendary cricketer and former Indian captain remains a favorite among netizens. Despite having stepped away from international cricket, his involvement with the Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL) keeps him in the limelight. April, being a peak IPL season, saw fans constantly sharing clips, tributes, and reactions to Dhoni’s gameplay and captaincy decisions.

3. Virat Kohli (@imVkohli)

Another cricket legend, Virat Kohli is still evoking emotions on and off the ground. His imposing performances, moments with fans, and unscripted moments with wife Anushka Sharma put him among the most followed and discussed personalities. He fell back in the ranks a bit, suggesting maybe a more even-out month than recent high-octane ones.

4. Rohit Sharma (@ImRo45)

Rohit Sharma held on to his fourth spot, supported by his performances as the captain of the Mumbai Indians in the IPL. Sharma's performance under pressure and consistent delivery have earned him a favorite among cricket fans. April witnessed widespread appreciation and criticism of his IPL strategy, generating further discussions online.

5. Allu Arjun (@alluarjun)

The "Pushpa" star maintained his meteoric ascent in national popularity, transcending regional limits. With news of his forthcoming film ventures and his squeaky-clean public image, Allu Arjun's fan following continues to be among the most fervent and active on X. His social media chatter witnessed a significant increase in April.

6. Amit Shah (@AmitShah)

The Home Minister and one of the key BJP strategists returned to the upper echelons as political activity in the nation picks up. With elections in the states in the works and matters related to national policy gaining momentum, Shah's words and appearances are receiving intense online attention, particularly from political observers and analysts.

7. Yogi Adityanath (@myogiadityanath)

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister had a consistent presence on X. The BJP's national plan and his aggressive style of governance made Adityanath's name come up frequently in political discourse, particularly as preparations for 2025 elections started taking shape.

8. Pawan Kalyan (@PawanKalyan)

Pawan Kalyan, balancing both politics and cinema career, is one of the major subjects of interest. His political party, Janasena, and his presence as a movie star have maintained him at center stage of internet political debate in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. April saw him experience a fall from the eighth to the tenth spot in engagement.

9. Vijay (@actorvijay)

Tamil superstar Vijay fell a few notches in April, but his power is still enormous. With fan clubs including his name on their daily trending lists and people waiting eagerly for what he does next, he still wields digital power, even on low-key months.

10. Akshay Kumar (@akshaykumar)

Bollywood action hero Akshay Kumar rounds out the top 10. With his constant stream of movie releases, endorsement deals, and charity work, Kumar continues to be a staple in public discourse. Though he wasn't one of the most viral names this month, his consistent participation meant he kept his place.

Social media trends show cricket and politics still dominate

Politics and Cricket Rule: Political leaders occupy five of the top ten positions and three of them are cricketers, clearly indicating that these two fields still influence Indian debate on social media.

South Indian Cinema's Emerging Power: Allu Arjun and Vijay's presence indicates the emerging clout of South Indian cinema that now demands pan-Indian focus.

Star Power Endures: Even as there are generational changes and new stars arise, veteran figures such as Dhoni, Kohli, and Akshay Kumar continue to be deeply entrenched in public popularity.

As India progresses further into the IPL season and heads toward key political deadlines, May 2025 is set to witness a re-shuffling of this list. What is certain, though, is that the virtual world presents an instant mirror to India's entertainment, political, and cultural pulse.
