Those parameters include Box-Office performance, their ability to stay in the news, TV and online, their brand endorsement and popularity among fans on the internet and social media. All these stats are taken cumulatively to assign the actors a final rank based on data collected from 60+ publications and 250+ TV channels making the first ever ranking system that would have Baseball Prospectus green with envy. Here is the list, courtesy of Times of India.com, separated by sex. It is topped by Salman Khan on the men's side and Deepika Padukone on the women's.
