With three releases in 2015, Kajal Agarwal managed to stay in the list of most searched celebrities for the year 2015. One of the most important reasons for Kajal Agarwal making the list is her popularity among both north and south Indians. She has a release coming up in 2016 in Hindi, and three films releasing in South India, which means we might see Kajal Agarwal in the list yet again!

No. 7: Yo Yo Honey Singh

Hirdesh Singh, the 32 year old singer who has taken the nation by storm as Honey Singh, features on No.7 on the list of most searched celebrities in India. While Honey Singh had three film songs releasing this year, it was his private single Dheere Dheere, starring Hrithik Roshan and Sonam Kapoor that brought him back into the news. There were also rumours about Honey Singh being admitted into a rehab programme for his drugs habit, but it was dismissed as mere rumours.

No. 6: Shah Rukh Khan:

With one release in 2015 – Dilwale – Shah Rukh Khan got much needed eyeballs for his film that featured him and Kajol together. However, apart from the film release, he also released trailers for his 2016 films – Raees and Fan. He was also in the news for his statements on intolerance, which were distorted and caused a furore in the country.

No. 5: Deepika Padukone:

If there is one actress who remained in the news through the year, it was her. First, it was her My Choice video, which brought feminists and chauvinists at loggerheads on social media. This was followed by three releases – Piku, Tamasha, and Bajirao Mastani. Deepika Padukone won rave reviews for her roles in all the three films, and also voiced her opinion on issues like journalistic ethics and depression. It is hardly a surprise that she is among the Top 5 celebrities of the year.

No. 4: Katrina Kaif:

Katrina Kaif had only one release this year – the poorly received Phantom. However, she remained in the news thanks to her product endorsements, and gossip mills running overdrive about her status with Ranbir Kapoor. Katrina Kaif has three important films coming up in 2016, and she might remain in the Top 10 list for the coming few years too!

No. 3: APJ Abdul Kalam:

One celebrity who is respected across ages, regions and demographies, APJ Abdul Kalam left this world this year, which led to huge tributes on the internet. Abdul Kalam was a favourite among students and children in the country, and it is only fitting that he left his body while doing what he loved the most, addressing students and inspiring them.

No. 2: Salman Khan:

No. 1: Sunny Leone:

Sunny Leone is also the brand ambassador for a number of products, and remains the most searched celebrity in India.
