Bollywood Ruled By "K" Ladies

2010 certainly showed that the heroines with names starting with the letter "K" made it big. They left a good mark by the end of the year.

Kajol: She made it big once again by pairing with friends Shahrukh Khan and Karan Johar in a movie called My Name Is Khan. That movie was a hit. Although her other movies such as We Are Family and Toonpur Ka Superhero didn't do that well, but My Name Is Khan definitely gave her a lot of success.

Katrina Kaif: This lady here though cannot act but she always makes it big every year. Her movies somehow become a hit for one reason or the other. It does not necessarily have to be her performance. Tees Maar Khan and her popular song Shiela Ki Jawani gave her a dream come true end to 2010. Besides, for the first time she was recognized a bit for her performance, though it actually sucked and was hardly worth remmebering in Rajneeti. Rajneeti was only Ranbir Kapoor's film but Indian audience love Katrina way too much.

Kareena Kapoor: The Kapoor and Saifoo girl, didn't do well initially with Milenge Milenge and We Are Family. But the year ended in her favor with Golmaal 3 making one of the biggest hits of 2010.

Kangana Ranaut: She is a beautiful and edgy actress who knows how to perform. Her performance in Once Upon A Time In Mumbai was appreciated.

Konkana Sen: She is always liked for her genuine acting skills and this year she acted well in Athiti Tum Kab Jaoge?

Katrina most profitable actress of 2010

Ajay Devgn and Katrina Kaif will be crowned the most profitable actors of 2010 at the 'ETC Bollywood Business Awards 2010 - Evaluating Movie Moghuls' today (December 28). First timer Abhinav Kashyap will get the most profitable director trophy.

"Figures talk, you cannot manipulate it, you cannot play games with it," said Ajay, who has had six releases this year including 'Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?' 'Raajneeti', 'Golmaal 3', and 'Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai' and except 'Aakrosh' and 'Toonpur Ka Superhero', all his movies did good business.

The research done by ETC indicated that Indian audiences paid a cumulative sum of Rs.282 crore to watch Ajay's films throughout the year vis-a-vis Rs.142 crore to watch Katrina's 'Raajneeti' and 'Tees Maar Khan'.

Breaking all records is Salman Khan’s 'Dabangg' that has been named as the top grosser of the year. Debut director Abhinav Kashyap bagged the most profitable director trophy for the corrupt cop saga with audiences paying a cumulative sum of over Rs.140 crore to watch his film.

"It is a fair assessment of the recipient's work and his popularity and mass appeal," said Arbaaz Khan, winner of the most successful producer for 'Dabangg'.
