This year’s edition celebrates the individuals shaping India’s cultural landscape with ingenuity, courage, and vision. The Cool List 2025 captures the vibrant pulse of a nation where music meets design, cinema meets conscience, and digital storytelling amplifies authentic voices.

From screen to sound, couture to content, the Cool List 2025 is a mosaic of talent reflecting the evolving face of contemporary India. These are the creators who turned ideas into movements, blurred the boundaries of their genres, and rewrote the rules of influence and impact. Whether on stage, on screen, or in digital spaces, they’ve emerged as cultural forces shaping trends and inspiring communities.
Rohit Gopakumar, Director of Worldwide Media and CEO of ZENL, BCCL TV & Digital Network, “The Grazia Cool List 2025 captures the spirit of a new era in India’s cultural and creative ecosystem. It’s more than recognition, it’s a lens on those shaping trends, ideas, and conversations across music, film, fashion, and design. Each individual honored demonstrates not only excellence in their craft but a vision that inspires innovation, challenges conventions, and defines what it means to influence culture meaningfully in today’s dynamic world.”
Adding her thoughts, Mehernaaz Dhondy, Editor-in-Chief, Grazia India, said, “It’s that time of the year again Cool List season is officially here! This is one of our most cherished IPs and, honestly, a true labour of love (our shoots span weeks, cities, and plenty of caffeine the behind-the-scenes could be a show in itself). Every year, we set out to find the voices who are defining now the thinkers, performers, designers, and creators who inspire with their passion and perspective. Each year, we curate names that have shaped the year in their own unique ways from breakout stars to cultural powerhouses, from storytellers to innovators.
