Sushant Singh Rajput was also 2020’s ‘most searched male celebrity’ and he was followed by Amitabh, Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan, Irrfan Khan, Rishi Kapoor, SP Balasubrahmanyam, Sonu Sood, Anurag Kashyap and Allu Arjun.
Like her late boyfriend, Rhea topped the 2020 list of ‘most searched female celebrity’ and was followed by Kangana, Deepika, Sunny, Priyanka, Katrina, singers Neha Kakkar and Kanika Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Sara Ali Khan.
