Salman Khan may be Bollywood's most eligible bachelor

but now, despite his infamous single status, his fans and their children have voted him as the perfect father figure of the nation.

Through an online-survey conducted by a reputed matrimonial site, the Indian youth were asked to nominate a person who they think will make a great dad. The poll, which was conducted much ahead of father's day, found Salman securing himself majority of the votes with 39% in his favor, hence, becoming the perfect father figure of Bollywood.

Winning by a clear margin of 8% from the charismatic Rahul Ghandhi (who received a close 31% of votes), Salman has once again proved how much he resides in the hearts of the youth of India, who, in fact, wait for their fav star to take up the role in real life too.

Other contenders who managed to gain a fair share of votes were Ranbir Kapoor and cricketers Yuvraj Singh and Virat Kohli - receiving 12.5%, 9.2% and 7.4% of votes respectively.

Guess his compassionate and selfless attitude towards children won him this booty. However, BollyCurry is curious to know who you think is the perfect 'bachelor' father?
