Despite a big campaign and the Lok Sabha elections, Modi seems to have lost the edge to the actress.

Google said, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi was one of the topmost searched personalities this year, coming ahead of Bollywood biggies — the first time a politician has gained more search popularity than entertainment celebrities,” said a report on Business Standard.

In the trending list, it was “Elections 2014” that topped over most others. The second trending topic was FIFA 2014, while iPhone 6 was third.

In the entertainment industry, Leone certainly leads the race, followed by always favorites Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif. Deepika Padukone is the close fourth on the list.

In the world of cricket, it was vice-captain of the Indian team Virat Kohli who remained the top choice, followed by master blaster Sachin Tendulkar.

The study has also revealed the internet searches have increased significantly this year, mostly on smartphones, which is an indicator of the growing digital emergence in India.

Google India Managing Director Rajan Anandan said that Indians are fast adapting to the digital world.

As the most searched movie of the year, it was “Ragini MMS 2” that topped the list, while Honey Singh’s song from his album “Blue Eyes” was also widely searched.
