I'm assuming you intended a different film than Vishwaroopam (2013) [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2199711/ ], which does not even have five votes.

From the IMDb FAQ on the IMDb Top 250
http://www.imdb.com/help/search?domai...

As indicated at the IMDb Top 250 Films page, only votes from regular IMDb voters are considered when creating the top 250 out of the full voting database. This explains any difference between the vote averages reported in the top 250 and those on the individual movie pages. This also explains why movies you might think from their averages ought to appear on the list yet do not actually appear there.

To maintain the effectiveness of the top 250 list, we deliberately do not disclose the criteria used for a person to be counted as a regular voter.

Please be aware that the Top 250 list (and the Bottom 100 chart) only include theatrical features: shorts, TV movies, miniseries and documentaries are not included in those charts. Top-rated documentaries are listed in a separate chart.

So don't you think that this issue should be notified to IMDb authorities who looks to these issue.Its certainly unusual that a movie which passes all the rules to be in IMDb Top 250 is not included.I just brought this to notice because it is first movie exceeding 25000 votes and a weighed rating of 9.0 is not on the list
