1. Shahid Kapoor
Actor Shahid Kapoor has been voted the ideal 'Youth Icon' in a poll.
He secured 38 per cent of the votes.
The actor made a bang with his film, 'Jab We Met'. And is not
looking back. Known to possess Shah Rukh Khan's charm coupled with
Aamir Khan's perfectionism, Shahid Kapoor is a teetotaler and
doesn't smoke. His once-upon-a-time affair with Kareena Kapoor was
much talked about. Though there have been link-ups with Vidya Balan
and Sania Mirza, the guy is still single and ready to mingle.
2. Hrithik Roshan
Actor Hrithik Roshan came second place with 30 per cent votes.
His Greek God looks, perfect body and down-to-earth attitude, makes
Hrithik Roshan an easy choice. His act in 'Jodhaa Akbar' went down
well with the masses. Having struck gold at the box office even in
his dad Rakesh Roshan's films, Hrithik became a household name with
ad commercials. A one-woman man, the actor tends to steer clear of
controversies.
3. Abhsihek Bachchan
Actor Abhishek Bachchan comes third in the 'Youth Icon' poll.
Actor Abhishek Bachchan has come back into the reckoning post
his 'Dostana' act. The guy who has married the most beautiful girl
in the world, Aishwarya Rai secured 16 per cent votes in the 'Youth
Icon' poll. After movies like 'Sarkar Raj', and 'Guru', actor
Abhishek Bachchan is one to be taken seriously. And his 'mobile-
service' ad has also contributed to his popularity quotient.
4. John Abraham
Actor John Abraham came fourth in the 'Youth Icon' poll.
The actor became the talk of the town when he did his 'butt' act
in 'Dostana'. He was also hailed 'gay icon' and 'sexiest man in
Asia'. John is known to endorse products that are very young – cola,
motorbikes, jeans... His love for bikes and gadgets makes him 'cool'
and helps him connect to a younger audience. His fetish for fitness,
too, makes him the ideal choice.
5. Saif Ali Khan
Actor Saif Ali Khan makes it to the fifth position in the 'Youth
Icon' poll.
The actor is more talked about today because of his rollicking
affair with Kareena Kapoor. However, Saif has revamped himself on
the big screen and is ahead in the 'race'. With pictures such
as 'Race' and 'Omkara', Saif Ali Khan is sought after today. He has
also embarked upon production by starting his own home production.
His first will be a movie directed by Imtiaz Ali and starring
Deepika Padukone.
