Most Searched Bollywood Actors on internet

By Nikhil Ramsubramaniam, September 10, 2010 - 09:32 IST

After the super response to the Top 5 Searched Actresses on the internet feature, we are back with the results of the Top 5 Searched Actors on the internet. If you thought that there were quite a few surprises in store among the Top 5 searched actresses, wait till you check out the results of the Top 5 Searched Actors. This study too was conducted using Google Trends and data for the last 3 years has been taken into consideration

Actor	Search Volume Index	Releases
Salman Khan	1.00	God Tussi Great Ho, Heroes, Hello, Yuvvraaj
Shahrukh Khan	0.83	Bhoothnath, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi
Aamir Khan	0.49	Ghajini
Akshay Kumar	0.43	Tashan, Singh Is Kinng, Jumbo
Shahid Kapoor	0.43	Kismat Konnection

Salman is on top for most of the year and SRK in second place. As for Aamir, there is a considerable difference between his search volume index and that of SRK's and Salman's. Aamir's search volume index however did soar a little higher towards the end of the year when Ghajini released. Also, Akshay showed a slight escalation in August when Singh Is Kinng released. Surprisingly even though Hrithik Roshan had a big release in 2008 in the form of Jodhaa Akbar, he didn't make it to the Top 5 Searched Actors and it is Shahid Kapoor instead who shares the bottom spot with Akshay Kumar.

Country-wise

Salman leads in most markets such as Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and UAE while SRK is No.2. However in India, SRK, Aamir, Akshay and Shahid are all placed pretty close. In Morocco, its Shahrukh who is the most searched actor even beating Salman to the top spot. 2009 2010

2010

Actor	Search Volume Index	Releases(till date)
Salman Khan	1.00	Veer, Dabangg
Shahrukh Khan	0.76	Dulha Mil Gaya, My Name Is Khan
Shahid Kapoor	0.56	Chance Pe Dance, Paathshala, Badmaash Company, Milenge Milenge
Hrithik Roshan	0.38	Kites
Akshay Kumar	0.34	Housefull, Khatta Meetha

Salman has once again been way ahead of the rest and the difference between him and SRK widens even further. With Dabangg hysteria, his popularity is likely to only grow from strength to strength. Nevertheless, SRK manages to hold on to the No.2 spot quite comfortably. With 4 releases, Shahid Kapoor continues to hold strong at No.3 while Hrithik replaces Akshay at the No.4 spot courtesy the hype surrounding Kites. Aamir Khan shockingly still doesn't find a place in the Top 5 searched celebs of 2010.

Country-wise

The country wise search data trend for 2010 follows a similar pattern like that of 2009.

The one who is better known as the 'Superstar of the Millennium'- Amitabh Bachchan and the one who is being touted as the 'Gen-next Superstar'- Ranbir Kapoor strangely lag way below these Top 5 / 6 actors in terms of most searched B-town actor in cyberspace. Quite shocking we say! http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/slideshow/2010/09/10/718/index3.html

Even on India Fm Salman is leading in men.

On Indiafm, I just saw SRK has the leading Celebrity Strength and in Most Searched Celebs in men, Aamir is leading.. but SRK is before Salman.

Great that Salman is on no.1 spot. Happy for shahid. He is also in this list.😃
