    With the destinies of Bollywood’s movers and shakers changing every Friday, to assess star ratings is no easy feat. And that’s where the Times Celebex powered by zoOm! is going to make a difference. The rating index is based on several measurable parameters, including the stars’ Box Office performance, their ability to stay in the news across print, TV and online; their brand endorsement, and their popularity among fans on the internet and social media. And all these will be cumulatively taken together to assign them a final rank called the ‘T Score’. Times Celebex is a scientific and robust ranking system based on data collected from 200+ publications and 250+ TV channels, making it the first ever ranking system for Bollywood. The September ‘T score’ is based on the star’s performance at the box office over the last two years along with their media visibility during the month of September 2012. While the first rating is based on September 2012 numbers, the next rating will be announced in the first week of January 2013 and will thereafter be a monthly rating.
    Bollywood ka reigning king finished first with the highest T Score, due to his superhits Dabangg, Ready, Bodyguard and his latest 190+ crore grosser Ek Tha Tiger. Further, Bigg Boss added to Tiger Khan. He is the highest searched actor on the Internet with 1.1 cr searches, and a superstar of the social media. Bas ek hi hai Salman!
    From her stunning looks to her I-care-a-damn attitude, Kareena Kapoor makes it to the number one position. Ra.One and Bodyguard were massive box office grossers. Heroine saw a good opening at the BO. She endorses 32 brands, and her highlypublicised wedding to Nawab Saif Ali Khan made it to the headlines of all media, taking her visibility to an absolute high.
