Facebook is the biggest social platform in the world and celebrities who receive the highest number of ‘likes’ are also arguably the most popular stars on the internet – and we say internet only because India lags way behind when it comes to penetration of the internet in smaller towns and villages.
The most followed Indian is Prime Minister Narendra Modi with more than 32 million followers on Facebook. The PM is closely followed by Deepika Padukone, who has just crossed the 31 million mark. Deepika happens to be the biggest and most popular female star in the country today.
The second position is occupied by Salman Khan, who recently crossed the 30 million ‘likes’ mark. Salman is widely considered to be the numero uno star in the industry today, an actor who has delivered an unprecedented 7 blockbusters in the last 6 years.
Yo Yo Honey Singh, Shreya Ghoshal and Amitabh Bachchan are in the Top 5.

If popularity is judge by fb akkians then agree also that kajal aggarwal ,sonakshi sinha are ahead of akki nd holiday ,rowdy rathore are hit becuz of sonakshi aunty
Truly,Facebook is the Biggest social platform in the world
but not the right yardstick to judge any one’s stardOm like many
people here commented.
If you do so
Deepika>Salman
Sunny Leone>Aamir
Believe this or just thrash the idea that it provides anything about STARDOM.
I wonder where Ranbir Kapoor would have been in this list if he had a facebook account. He once said in a interview that he doesn’t like social media sites.
@Aisha First off all ranbir kapur is not on social networking sites ..so ?
2nd thing kapil sharma is very very popular celebrity now . His popularity is on the lines of yo yo honey singh nd even any bollywood star . Mind it !! Yes he can’t do well in films because lack of looks nd heroism but when it comes to popularity ,he is right on top at this time.
Nd talking about virat nd sania then they also hve big likes on Facebook but this list is only of bollywood celebrities. Use ur mind dear aishu . I hope u get ur all answers correctly. ?
Honey singh kapil sharma nd salman khan are 3 most popular celebrities nowadays nd u can see they are at the top . So don’t give false examples .
Nd where is ur ajay on twitter ? ?
U r thrashed
@Dammn oh yeah that is why srk is yet to give a hit TV show . I tell u the reason why he failed on TV because in metro cities people don’t watch much TV where he has strong fan following nd other people don’t even care for srk ..TRUTH .
@IAMFAN
It’s only about popularity not about stardom .
Nd don’t u think sunny leone is very popular? She is most searched celebrity on Google. Even deepika is very popular. So is everybody who is on top . IT’S CORRECT.
@AISHA I m not giving myself hypertension. I m just having fun with real facts ? I like having fun all the time so don’t think it in that way .
BTW I think i haven’t watch even 10 movies of ajay devgan, honestly .
Indicine has missed many celebrities otherwise ajay would hve been on 40th I guess ? indicine well done , I like how u put ajay on last on this list ? Hi5
@Damnnn you idiot you are saying that small star akshay has more fan following than mgastat aamir khan? Then you must be the dumbest kid I have ever seen. who is akshay in front of aamir? What has akshay done at box office. The most flops giving actor and has only 4 100 Cr grossers despite doing more than 15 films since 2012 with one being multistarrer and other 3 are south remakes or great received films. While aamir has done only 5 films since 2008 and out of that 4 are not only 100 Cr.grossers but also 200 Cr, 250 Cr and 300 Cr grossers. Which is a dream for akshay. Aamir is baap of everyone in fan following. If akshay has more fan following than aamir, which is funny though, then you hypocrite also should agree that akshay has more fan following than srk and Salman. Ab jali?
@Rocky
just like how Ranbir does not like media sites others to don’t participate actively so stop being bias a friend of yours already mentioned Rabbit has high fans followers on media site tan other actors. the idiot is hiding now. where are his loyal fan base that makes him a superstar? source?
it’s really a shame people just talk lies to bring down other actors forgetting their lifestyle first and the kind of person they are referring too.
@sss dint insult srk by calling him megastar. What megastar? There are many stars, supertars, megastars but there is only one King of Bollywood. And srk is the king. Megastar is a too small word for him. I feel like an insult of anyone calls srk as superstar or megastar. Because he is bigger than all such small titles. He is the KING of Bollywood. haters bark whatever they can, but king title can not be achieved by any megastar as its achieved by srk.
@indicine
so tiger is more popular than Ranbir Sid Varun?
yami more popular than Anuksha? I already bracketed Ajay….
Shradda likes more than Katrina kaif (2.9m likes).
@ boyyish kiddo
I told you don’t bite what you can’t chew. stop lying and giving girlish excuse. now go and challenge indicine for putting Ranbir way below Tiger Arjun shahid okay. have the guts go ahead what you just told me tell @indicine Ranbir has is not in d media site then I will know you are a real man not a boy. if not listen with cool mind . nobody will make me believe Arjun is more popular than Ranbir you know why ? I am very much aware of Ajay Ranbir Ash Kangana Rani Katrina respect for privacy. go and type bollywood celebs who distance themselves from social media and then relax and stop using vulgar words and then Indicine post the real truth like how they did. It’s a shame you don’t even know anything about Ranbir. Ajay bottom on the list? I won’t mind him there.
Once more prove that what you just told me is a fact by asking @indicine to remove Ranbir name. if you don’t you are just the most idiotic kid I ever came across and as ppl say henceforth I will just blank you completely. idiot …now tell @indicine they are wrong. tell them why Katrina likes is barely 3lakhs if not go and treat yourself. I don’t care how many Ajay movies you watch that’s your problem at least you have watched all those that had Akki as supporting actor in the movies they acted.
indicine…thanks made my day. jumaa mubharak
