Mumbai, Feb 5 () Actor Akshay Kumar has pipped Deepika Padukone in celebrity brand ranking with the Khiladi star's value rising to USD 104.5 million, according to a report released on Wednesday. Cricketer Virat Kohli continues to hold the top spot with a brand value of USD 237.5 million, Duff and Phelps' celebrity brand valuation report for 2019 said. Padukone, who was ranked at number two last year, has slipped to number three with a brand valuation of USD 93.5 million, while Kumar has replaced her as the second most-valued celebrity, the report said. Padukone invited the ire of a lot of people by showing up at protests at JNU against a violent attack on students, while Kumar was in the news for interviewing Prime Minister Narendra Modi ahead of his landslide win in the general elections. Both Padukone and Kumar had a slew of popular releases during the year. Padukone shares the number-three spot with actor-husband Ranveer Singh, who was ranked at number four in the year-ago period. Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan continue to hold on to their number six and five spots, with brand values of USD 55.7 million and USD 66.1 million, respectively, it said. Aamir Khan has had a major slip in ranking by brand value to 16th place with a total value of USD 24.9 million, as against 11th place in the year-ago period. Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan's rank has also slipped to eighth from the seventh rank in the year-ago period with a value of USD 42.5 million, and has swapped placed with Alia Bhatt, whose current value is USD 45.8 million. There have been new entrants in the top-20 list like Article-15 actor Ayushman Khurana at rank 10 with a value of USD 40.3 million, Jackie Shroff's actor son Tiger at rank 17 with a USD 24.2 million brand worth and cricketer Rohit Sharma at 20th rank. The top-20 celebrity brands are from cricket and films and are collectively worth over USD 1.1 billion. The agency said it relied on a brand analysis, endorsement value and brand multiple parameters while determining the value of a particular celebrity brand. AA HRS

This included traditional and modern retailers within the segment, and excluded SMBs and a gazillion different kinds of local stores. It is impossible to cover all these stores in a campaign. So, how did Cadbury India make it possible for all of these small enterprises to onboard Shahrukh Khan as their brand ambassador? The brand turned to Artificial Intelligence. Enabled by Rephrase's tech, the team used Machine Learning to recreate Shahrukh Khan’s voice and face to take the local store’s names in the ad. It was followed by a hyperlocal targeting campaign. The different versions of the same ad with local store names were targeted as per the pincode of the viewer, showing them only the nearby stores. From garment owners to local sweet shops, all SMBs can visit Cadbury India’s website and create their own version and share it on their social media platforms. The ad ends with happy faces and local store owners expressing how amused they are. "I still can't believe that Shah Rukh Khan made an ad for my store," says a local garment owner. “The small stores around us deserve to have a Happy Diwali," says Shahrukh Khan, who has indeed become India's biggest brand ambassador as he represents SMBs of all kinds this year. Not much to our surprise, the ad has gone viral and no one could stop talking about it over the weekend. <div type="twitter" handle="nairsameer" handlename="Sameer Nair" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/579511576014651392/wjmKrPiv_normal.jpg" favoritecount="4367" retweetcount="1155" status="Not just a Cadbury Ad!Way to go @DairyMilkIn #SRK #HappyDiwali https://t.co/JTxDECYRFl" createdat="1634986210000" id="1451863513102647299"></div> <div type="twitter" handle="anujachauhan" handlename="anuja chauhan" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1388088514542149633/lDmI2vn-_normal.jpg" favoritecount="292" retweetcount="71" status="#ShahRukhKhan is the best metaphor we have for the Idea of India.

The lockdowns proved to be an ambush, especially for small businesses. The launch of the 'Iss Diwali Aap #KiseKhushKarenge' campaign was our way of lending support to those local ventures, helping them build resilience. It is the success of our first edition that inspired us to further take our purpose of generosity at the heart of these businesses and make their 2021 Diwali even more joyful, and we are thrilled to onboard the nation’s most beloved and talented actor, Shah Rukh Khan as the face of the current campaign. We have also partnered with Rephrase.ai who helped us leverage the might of AI,and help local business owners to light up their brands with a special personalized ad. Not only bringing their audiences closer but igniting interest amongst newer ones. Over the years, our products have become an intrinsic part of India’s celebrations. With this effort, we hope for our consumers to not just take home our products, but also live our purpose of small acts of generosity as they welcome the festive fervor with friends and family.” Sukesh Nayak, Chief Creative Officer, Ogilvy India, said, "The happiness that we generated in 2020 with our first edition of Not just Cadbury ad inspired us to come back with another edition of the idea. We used the power of AI Tech to help numerous small store owners create their very own personalized ads. We hope that this initiative helps boost the sales of small store owners and makes their Diwali sweeter." Shekhar Banerjee, Chief Client Officer, and West Head, Wavemaker India, said, “The massive success of this effort in 2020 prompted us to take it to the next level in 2021, considering Diwali celebrations still haven't returned to pre-covid levels. Consumer and local store outlook is still subdued, and we felt it was relevant this year to continue to extend our support to local retailers. True to our philosophy of leveraging data and tech in crafting all consumer experiences, we have pushed ourselves to greater heights and more inclusivity. We've expanded the scope from 250 pin codes in 2020 to 500 pin codes this year, reaching 2000+ local retailers. This year we're also adding a way for local stores as well as consumers to create their personalized ads and promote themselves or to support their local retailers.

However for the King of <keyword id="143" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bollywood">Bollywood</keyword>, things are different. 
 
The 51 year old actor ruling Bollywood for decades has a well toned physique since the beginning of his career. For his movies ‘Om Shanti Om’ and ‘Happy New Year’, Shahrukh underwent tremendous training and grew muscles. He has stunned us with his six pack abs in 2007. That was one major inspiration for many youngsters to take up the working out as a favourite pastime. 
Shahrukh Khan is 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighs 73 kgs. 
 
And here’s how he works out.

<ul><li>In October 2019, <keyword id="1655" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Priyanka-Chopra">Priyanka Chopra</keyword> and Salman Khan were searched 2.74 and 1.83 million times respectively. </li><li><keyword id="32176" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="amrish-puri">Amrish Puri</keyword> and Shahrukh Khan followed the list and were searched an average of 1.7 million times respectively. </li><li>On the other hand, Priyanka Chopra, <keyword id="836886" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Sunny-Leone">Sunny Leone</keyword>, and Deepika Padukone are the leading ladies on the list.</li></ul>Celebrities draw the maximum attention of audiences all around the world. SEMrush recently conducted a global study on the popularity of Indian actors and actresses across the boundaries. The study contains global data from October 2018 to October 2019 and found that Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra are the topmost internationally searched Indian celebrities. In October 2019, Priyanka Chopra and Salman Khan were searched 2.74 and 1.83 million times respectively. The most searches for Priyanka Chopra were made in December 2018. She was searched 13.6 million times that month. Searches for Salman Khan in a single month never exceeded 2.74 million; he was searched this many times in December 2018. Excitingly, Priyanka Chopra is leading the race with a monthly search volume of more than 4.2 million, however, Salman Khan has over 2 million monthly searches. The study has two segments bifurcated into Indian actors and actresses. Considering segments individually, the top three most popular actors are Salman Khan, Amrish Puri and Shahrukh Khan. The latter two were searched an average of 1.7 million times respectively. On the other hand, Priyanka Chopra, Sunny Leone, and Deepika Padukone are the leading ladies on the list. Another fascinating fact revealed in this case study is that Madhubala is the 6th most eminent actress with 1.3 million monthly global searches wherein Leone and Padukone have been searched over 3 million and 1.8 million times respectively. Katrina Kaif, Alia Bhatt, Imran Khan, and Ranveer Singh are the other prominent names in the search list of international audiences. Amitabh Bachchan stands at the top 7th position with a monthly search average of 720K. Fernando Angulo, Head of Communications, SEMrush, said, “It is always exciting to know about the film industry and surprisingly India and all other countries slightly have similar preference as Salman Khan is equally popular all around. What added to my surprise is that audiences value that genuine talent and still remember veteran Indian actor Amrish Puri and actress Madhubala as much as they search the celebrities with an active career. Also, there is not much difference in the search volume of present celebrities in comparison to Amrish Puri and Madhubala.”

While <keyword id="150626" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="HM">H&amp;M</keyword> may be excited to dive into the Indian market and a number of marquee fashion brands may want to follow suit to cater to the fast growing brand conscious consumer market that's craving for more options, Indian online fashion retailer <keyword id="1143511" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Yepme-com">Yepme.com</keyword> is busy trying to build a Zara-like brand of its own so that the new fashion hungry frats in India don't have to look up to the US and European companies for being in tune with the latest fashion trends. 
 
Four years into the business, work is on silently in almost every arena at Yepme - on introducing new range in clothing to foraying into new segment, and raising and pushing big money into brand building (the most crucial bit)! There's special focus on the brand side because that's what it is aiming for - "to become the best fashion brand in India in the next three years" - as Vivek Gaur, the co-founder and CEO of Yepme, tells us. 
 Precisely, why Yepme has not only extended contract with their superstar face <keyword id="6357753" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="shahrukh-khan">Shahrukh Khan</keyword>, but it has also roped in south Indian heart-throb <keyword id="6370559" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Tamanna">Tamanna</keyword>, who became well known in the north recently after she set the box office on fire with Bahubali. The duo will be seen vouching for Yepme's brand new ethnic line in a short film that will flash on your screens from November 1. The timing of launch of ethnic collection has been kept just when the festive season would kick in. 
 
"Apart from the ethnic collection, we are getting into three more distinct areas- premium party wear, active wear and inner wear. The plan is to bring party wear by end of this year (around December when the party spirits are high) and inner wear by Sept-Oct next year which is an altogether new segment for us," said Vivek, adding that the company is eyeing vertical growth and wants to go beyond just offering western casual wear to customers. 
 At the moment, Yepme is deriving 15-20 per cent benefits in the ongoing Big Billion Days and festive season sale on <keyword id="6354742" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Flipkart">Flipkart</keyword> and <keyword id="18635" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Amazon">Amazon</keyword> as a result of being positioned among famous brands like Benetton on the featured banners of e-commerce websites. It, however, aims to cash in more from its presence on these portals once its brand becomes salient. 
 
By virtue of being an online fashion retailer and not an e-commerce website per say, Yepme is not competing with the likes of Snapdeal. "Unlike them, we don't spend money on discounting and schemes. We want customers to come to us not for cheap pricing or discounts but for the brand," says Vivek. 
 
He explains:"On every product that I ship, I make 20-25 per cent margin. That pays for my fixed cost apart from covering the delivery and product cost. So all these costs are covered by way of selling. And all the money that I raise goes into advertising and building the brand. That's how I have a Shahrukh in my TV ads." 
 
With so much investment in building the brand, Vivek aspires to make Yepme global by shaping it as a million dollar brand by 2020. 
 
But there’s no hurry. The prime agenda is to first make India a profitable market for Yepme’s line of products. And that’s not a difficult task for an Indian company at this time. Rivals such as the likes of H&amp;M have to manufacture in India and Bangladesh and ship products back to their country. But for an in house newbie like Yepme wanting to become a fashion brand in the country, the game is sort of easy, or so it seems for now. 
 
With a huge textile base, large garment manufacturing base, technology as good as in the US, excellent resource from fashion institutes to create designs and IITians to analyse fashion trends and behavior- everything is under the same roof. 
 
"We are tapping it. Once your home becomes a big market, there is an aspiration value for your product across countries," says Vivek. 
 
In light of the above facts, why can't the next H&amp;M or Zara be from India!

Known as the ‘run and the record machine,’ Kohli retained his top position for the fourth time in a row in Duff &amp; Phelps’ ranking with a brand value of $237.7 million in 2020. In the brandverse, he has beaten the Khans and left the whole Bollywood far behind in the last four years. He is the only sports celebrity on the top 10 list this year. Even during IPL commercial breaks, he is one of the most visible faces on television with more than 17 brands in his kitty. As per IPLomania, a syndicated study from Hansa Research, Kohli is one of the most highly-rated players in the IPL. His popularity across performance parameters, as well as image attributes, have already surpassed those of Dhoni who has unequivocally been the biggest star in the IPL over the years. India is a country that worships cricket. IPL brings a great opportunity for brands to connect with their consumers and it is during this extravaganza that celebrity endorsements see a spike on television. According to TAM Sports-IPL 13 Advertising Report, the total number of celebrities seen in ads during the IPL went up by 92% for the first four live matches, as compared to the 2019 edition. The demand for cricket celebrities is also increasing over the years. The report further stated that IPL 2020 witnessed 18 sports celebrities in ad films during the first four matches. In 2019, only four sports stars were seen during the same duration. Kohli was the second most visible celebrity during IPL season 13, contributing 16% to the ad volume. As per media reports, Kohli is also the highest-paid athlete and apart from cricket, he earns a majority of his net worth from brand endorsements. Duff &amp; Phelps and Hansa Research told us that Kohli is expected to earn around Rs 10-12 crore or $20 million per endorsement on an average. So, what makes Kohli so popular? N. Chandramouli, CEO, TRA Research said, “Virat Kohli has established his credentials with panache in his earlier cricketing innings and the seeds of his popularity lies in that. His records in today’s day of fast cricket are quite commendable too. Though he has among the lowest percentage wins as Captain of any league team, his personal performance has been extremely good and makes him desirable as a brand ambassador. The value of Virat is linked to RCB victories, but a cricket celebrity is no longer just limited to the game, and his versatility has been useful for him. While Virat has a few more cricketing years left, other talents like Devdutt Padikaal are emerging, and as we know NILF (Nothing In Life is Free), so as long as Virat continues to score in the game, he will score with the brands and fans.” “He has emerged as the primary choice of product brands to engage and attract consumers. Not only has Kohli amazed the audience with his professional laureates, his personal life has also always been in limelight. Be it his strict fitness regimen or his ‘family man’ image, many product brands have associated with Kohli to capitalize on the perception he has created over the years. Even though he may not perform at the top on the cricket field at times, he is still the most loved celebrity in the brand verse owing to the additional qualities and quirks he brings to the table, which resonates well with the product’s brand image,” said Aviral Jain, Managing Director, Duff &amp; Phelps. Kohli represents brands across categories, as mentioned below in Duff &amp; Phelps 2020 report. Some notable endorsements signed by Virat Kohli include Great Learning, iQOO, Iqoo Smartphones, Lafarge, Max Life Insurance and Vizecare. Additionally, he has been endorsing brands like Colgate, Google, Hero, Puma, Vicks, etc. He was also recently appointed as the brand ambassador by IPL’s title sponsor Vivo. Telling us what inspired the brand to choose Kohli amongst other IPL team captains, Nipun Marya, Director - Brand Strategy, vivo India said, “Cricket in India is not just a sport. It is an emotion that binds the nation together. Virat Kohli steers this passion for the sport well through his commitment and winning mentality. When it comes to making the real difference in a Cricket match, Virat is the undisputed king. His strong character on the field and captivating charm make him bring joy to millions of cricket fans worldwide, making Virat a perfect choice for vivo. The idea behind associating with a sports youth icon like Virat is to better connect with our consumers. With Virat Kohli's association, we aim to reach the millennials and technologically driven consumers, the key audience for us." Brand Endorser, another syndicated study by Hansa Research, validates Kohli’s celebrity status. A comparison of ‘Celebrity Scores’ across various parameters – Recognisability, Personality, Persuasiveness, and Likeability – puts Kohli in the same bracket as Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan, Shahrukh Khan, and Mahendra Singh Dhoni, some of India’s most bankable celebrity endorsers. Comparing Kohli with other cricketers, V. Sudarshan, – CMO and SVP, Hansa Research said, “Virat Kohli is one of the most expressive cricketers, be on the ground or during interviews. Tendulkar was a Cricketing God for a nation that had hardly seen any sporting personalities as heroes that had a global reverence. Dhoni was a small town railway employee asserting himself by winning the world cup. Virat did neither, but has managed to become a modern role model for a new India that is unapologetically assertive and fiercely independent. In terms of performance on the field, both Tendulkar and Dhoni were superlative in their own right. This was a vital factor in their stardom and the resulting marketability. Virat has not only matched it but, arguably, gone even further in dominance. He could be one of the first batsmen to be a genuine master across all formats – Tests, ODIs, &amp; T20s. Virat’s consistency in performance, and resonance with the youth could be seen as the key ingredients that make him such a sought after sports celebrity in India.” Sudarshan also told us that Kohli earns massive amounts of money via endorsements of brands like Puma, Audi, MRF, Colgate-Palmolive, Tissot and has done shoots for many personal care companies as well. MRF signed Kohli in 2015 for a three-year period, where he reportedly received ₹8 Crore per year. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Kohli’s charm on social media" text="Kohli’s charm on social media">Kohli’s charm on social media</cmsannotation> Kohli’s social media following also increased by 46.3% from 112.8 million in 2019 to 165.0 million in 2020, revealed Duff &amp; Phelps. He has been engaging with his fans frequently through live sessions, posts, reels, etc. Here’s how his Social Media following has grown across Facebook, Twitter and Instagram over the last 3 years. “This massive social media following adds to the potential consumer base for the associated brands, especially during the lockdown when most of the brands had little to no access to the traditional channels of advertisement. As per data from Hyper Auditor, his quality audience has increased by 66.6 percent from 41.9 Mn in 2019 to 69.8 Mn in 2020. Moreover, Kohli has been engaging with his fans frequently through live sessions, posts, reels, etc. His engagement per post also increased from 2.2 percent in 2019 to 2.8 percent in 2020,” said Jain. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Will RCB’s performance impact Kohli’s brand image?" text="Will RCB’s performance impact Kohli’s brand image?">Will RCB’s performance impact Kohli’s brand image?</cmsannotation> Kohli’s IPL team, RCB’s brand value declined by 9.9% in 2020. Considering that brands chase numbers and eyeballs, will this decline in the team's value impact Kohli’s net worth this year? Jain explained, “RCB’s value decreased largely due to the impact of pandemic last year. While RCB’s value declined last year, its value may have been further impacted had RCB not leveraged heavily on Brand Kohli. A large portion of RCB’s ability to generate sponsor interests (even after below average on-field performances) is due to their association with Virat Kohli. Virat has been signed as brand ambassador of many brands since cricket has mass appeal, and fans worship him for his expertise, consistent performance and excellence in all three formats of cricket. However, his following is dependent on a lot of factors besides his professional excellence. Thus, while we agree that brands chase numbers, Virat’s brand value may not be materially impacted by the decrease in RCB’s value. Kohli’s brand image, relatability and followership continue to remain strong and we expect the same trend going forward.” Sudarshan also said that Virat Kohli’s popularity is not dependent on RCB. In fact, it’s the other way around. “RCB has been able to sustain its popularity (despite an indifferent IPL performance) because of Virat Kohli. Players like Virat Kohli and Dhoni are not dependent on the IPL to enhance their earning potential. Rather, it is the IPL that becomes a more marketable property for brand, because of the presence of such players in the league,” he added. While only time will tell whether Kohli’s RCB will bring back home ‘team of the year’ title, he will continue to be the favourite celebrity in the brandverse.

Yet, they have fared better than their global counterparts, as its global list has shed 20% of its value. Most of this loss in brand value was seen in Indian tech brands whose value shrunk by 14%. The brands have a major presence in international markets, and have been impacted by global pressures, recession threats and geopolitical instability, says Kantar. “If you exclude tech, the combined brand value is quite stable,” said Soumya Mohanty, managing director and chief client officer, South Asia, Insights Division of Kantar. TCS on the top, as usual The spot of India’s most valuable brand, however, is retained by tech giant TCS. It has shed 6% of its value but has fared better than tech as a sector. “TCS has a strong corporate reputation which makes it more likely to retain clients and business. It can also help enable customer retention which is also a factor that adds to brand value,” Deepender Rana, executive managing director of South Asia Insights Division at Kantar told Business Insider India. Infosys’ brand value dropped by 17%, while HCL Tech’s brand value rose by 3%. Both these brands made it to the top 10. Wipro’s brand value dropped by a sharp 42%.

risers of the year. TVS, valued at $1.9 billion, occupies the 51st rank. The company has gained 59% in value and leapt 24 places thanks to a number of successful product launches and a 10-year partnership with BMW that gives it leverage in markets such as Europe, the US and Canada. Mahindra is valued at $2.01 billion and occupies the 47th rank. Mahindra, which grew its value by 48%, made itself incredibly meaningful in consumers’ eyes, and also significantly boosted its salience. The sector saw the second highest category growth of 19%, after tobacco. Royal Enfield’s value also swelled, thanks to Indians’ preference for premium products. A lot of Indian auto brands, like Tata Motors, also entered EV markets and are able to meet consumer needs better, observes Rana. “Auto companies’ value declined during Covid and made a comeback after they dealt with supply chain issues and dealt with bottlenecks,” said Mohanty. India’s largest auto company Maruti Suzuki, however, shed 5% of its brand value, while Bajaj Auto’s brand value went up by 9%. The value in finance Financial services brands have grown their brand value by 6% with 16 brands and contributing to the biggest chunk of the total brand value. Their growth is attributed to growth in digital banking and Axis Bank whose value swelled 28% and now ranks at 17. ICICI Bank which ranks at no 6 also has seen its brand value swell by 18%. Two of this year’s new entrants also belong to the fintech sector — PhonePe and Cred. This is in spite of the fact that tech as a sector saw its value go down during the year. PhonePe has made its debut on the list at No.21 with a value of $4.4 billion. It has quickly become India’s leading digital payment app by investing heavily in the strength of its infrastructure, building connections with partner banks, and developing a huge network of merchant acceptance points, said Kantar. Meanwhile, Cred has entered at no 48 with a brand value of $2 billion. “Growth of credit and other digital trends are adding to the value of fintechs. There is a need for these services and brands are doing a good job of providing them,” Mohanty tells Business Insider India. PayTM, Zomato, Swiggy, Flipkart, Naukri, Oyo and Nykaa have shed value; while Byju’s hasn’t been included in the list this year. FMCG as a sector has seen its brand value remain stable during the year.
