Deepika Padukone - India’s ‘most valuable’ actor

Without a doubt, Padmaavat actor Deepika Padukone is one of the most polished and popular actors in India today. Or, as a matter of fact, in South Asia. It’s safe to say we will be soon hearing from her soon, as a firm has put out a list called ‘Celebrity Brand Valuation Study 2020’ which supports the much deserved fame that Padukone has, reported Filmfare.

In an industry dominated by male superstars, Padukone has been at the forefront, bringing change to the much repetitive culture existing in Bollywood. In the list shared by Duff and Phelps, the Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela actor secured the fourth spot, surpassing the likes of Salman Khan, Ayushmann Khurrana, Hrithik Roshan and Amitabh Bachchan.

This achievement means that Padukone is now officially India’s most valuable actor. The surge in her popularity over the years has been a major factor behind this. Naturally, brands are always looking to cash in on what works for the audience so the starlet became a pretty obvious choice.

Currently, Padukone is valued at $ 50.4 million and if sources are to be believed, she’ll be signing on for some new brands in the coming days. Looks like the only way that figure is headed is upwards.
