Shahrukh Khan loses battle to Katrina Kaif


A recent research, done by mBit Infotech, a pioneer in VAS Services, revealed that Akon is the most searched and downloaded popular icon/personality in the mobile search and download space. In the Bollywood category, Katrina's mobile popularity is way ahead of Shahrukh's as revealed by the research.

The research is based on the searches performed by over 1,20,000 users of mBit in the first quarter of 2010 (Jan - April). The results showed that 'SEX' is still the-most-popular-searched Keyword, out of 6730 unique keywords, which accounts to 30% of the total searches performed including words porn, porno, naked etc.

Music is the second most searched for keyword accounting to the 19% of the total searches. Mostly international music icons like Akon, Linkin Park, Eminem, Lady Gaga, Madonna, Rihanna and Michael Jackson top the list in this category. Also, Sports specially Cricket along with Movies & Videos are the third most searched for category which is 15% of the total searches.

Surprisingly, searches with keywords for Bollywood & Hollywood icons were way below accounting to only 5% of the total searches according to the mBit research. Commenting on the result, Raghavendra Agarwala, CEO, mBit Infotech says, "It is amazing to see that out of this total 5%, Katrina Kaif is ruling the charts with a major pie, presumably implying that Katrina's popularity is mounting for both national and international audiences. This has placed Katrina on the number 1 spot followed by Angelina Jolie, Kareena kapoor, Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Bipasha Basu, Aishwarya Rai, Monica Bellucci and Aamir Khan by a considerable amount. Also, besides the 'A' searches which are highly searched for on mobile phones as well, Music is something that the users are actually looking at."
