Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has topped a list of the most attractive personalities, leaving behind the likes of megastars Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan.
The Bajrangi Bhaijaan star is rated ‘India’s Most Attractive Personality’, according to a 16-city survey conducted by TRA (formerly Trust Research Advisory), a Comniscient Group company which has diversified interests in communication, media and brand analytics.
The company conducted a report based on what it called a “36 Trait Matrix” to measure “brand attractiveness”.
Following Salman in the “attractiveness quotient” are Amitabh, 72, and Shah Rukh, 49.
Actress Deepika Padukone came fourth in the list dethroning Katrina Kaif, who was at the top among females in the last before preceding this one. Following Deepika in this year’s list are Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Rahul Dravid, Ranbir Kapoor, Hema Malini, Sachin Tendulkar, Aamir Khan and Virat Kohli.
In total, 11 personalities from cinema and sports are included in the report.
While we often see attractiveness only in terms of physical beauty, there is so much more to it. “True attractiveness is based on four foundations that are based on appeals of Rational, Emotional, Aspirational and Communication,” N Chandramouli, TRA CEO, said in a statement.
