TOP 10 MOST DESIRABLE MEN
Here's the list of the guys who you have voted as India's Most Desirable in 2011. It comes as no surprise why, these boys have it all - the looks, the body, the panache!
1) Salman Khan
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: Given his current streak of successes, it sure seems that Salman Khan can do no wrong. With Ready and Bodyguard breaking box office records, 2011 undoubtedly was Salman Khan's year. Off-screen, controversy's favourite child has steered clear of trouble. He underwent surgery last year and had to take time off to rest and recuperate. Yet, he managed to fulfill all his professional commitments.
Relationship Status: Single
Desirability Quotient: This good-looking man is also known to have a heart of gold. On screen, his action sequences and comic turns are known to send crowds into a tizzy. Of course, it does help that the charismatic Sallu is in great shape physically and age seems to have had no effect on him.
2)Ranbir Kapoor
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: Rishi and Neetu's son is a superstar in the making. As far as performances go, he only gets better with each passing role. He showed his mettle with 2011's Rockstar in a role that outshone every other performance last year.
Desirability Quotient (DQ): He's got the looks, the lineage, is young, and makes the ladies swoon.
Relationship Status: Dating Katrina Kaif again. Sorry, girls!
Fun Fact: He's moving into a place of his own soon. He's moved up a spot in the list. Did we hear him go Sadda Haq Aithe Rakh?
3)Hrithik Roshan
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: Rakesh Roshan's son is built like a Greek god. And he works pretty hard in the gym to keep his bod that way. He works equally hard on his performances and in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, one got to see an image quite contrary to what he usually portrays. The man cried, dammit!
Relationship Status: Married to Sussanne.
DQ: Last year's Most Desirable Man is humble, genuine, has a body to kill for and those light eyes make us weak-kneed.
Fun Fact: Has a wax statue in Madame Tussauds and is occasionally known to wax eloquent. How many actors can claim that?
4)John Abraham
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: The former model came to prominence with his constant state of shirtlessness, a trait he played to great effect in last year's Force and Desi Boyz. There was also an interesting turn he made in 7 Khoon Maaf.
Relationship Status: Dating investment banker Priya Runchal. Split from girlfriend of several years Bipasha Basu last year.
DQ: Has been in great shape for as long as we can remember. Seems to have let go of commitment issues.
Fun Factor: Johnny boy is finally out... flaunting the new girl in
his life!
5) Mahesh Babu
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: He is one of Telugu cinema's leading actors of his generation. His debut won him several awards. As did some of his latter films, most notably Pokiri. The only film he starred in last year, Dookudu, had the Telugu film industry's largest worldwide opening.
Relationship Status: Married to former Bollywood actress Namrata Shirodkar.
DQ: He might have chocolate boy looks, but the actor is undeniably known for his powerful screen presence.
6)Mahendra Singh Dhoni
Who: Cricketer
Claim to fame: One of India's most successful cricket captains, Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been a force to reckon with, mostly for his devil-may-care attitude and for his many endorsements. Whatever this Jharkand boy says or does these days makes news.
Relationship Status: Married to Sakshi Singh Rawat.
DQ: Charismatic and attractive. Girls love his rugged charm.
7)Shah Rukh Khan
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: Known by several names, most famously as King Khan, he is a force of nature in overseas markets. His RA.One and Don 2 hit box-office gold in India and worldwide. Stuff superstars are made of.
Relationship Status: Married to Gauri Khan.
DQ: A workaholic, he still finds time for his family. He's intelligent, suave and a true-blue performer.
8)Shahid Kapoor
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: Shahid is veteran actor Pankaj Kapur's son and finally saw the release of his father's directorial debut through, hiccups notwithstanding. Delivers outstanding performances.
Relationship Status: Single
DQ: The quintessential good boy. This boy has no vices, unless you count breaking hearts. He's got the six-pack and he charms the ladies with his unassuming nature. Over a million fans on Twitter. He's one of India's most eligible bachelors.
9)Imran Khan
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: Counts Aamir Khan as his maamu. Had a dream debut. A few flops followed, but Imran bounced back in due course. Last year, showed off his funny side with Delhi Belly. And Mere Brother Ki Dulhan.
Relationship Status: Married to Avantika Malik.
DQ: He's committed to his wife, dedicated to his work and he's one of the most level-headed actors we have. Pretty mature for his age.
10)Arjun Rampal
Who: Actor
Claim to fame: The former supermodel has had his fair share of ups and downs, and a slew of critics bashing him from every quarter, but has always managed to stay in the hunt. A National Award winner, he also played the title role in last year's Shah Rukh-starrer RA.One. This guy is slowly and surely heading up the ladder.
Relationship status: Married to former supermodel Mehr Jesia.
DQ: Great looks, effortlessly stylish, erudite as well!
