These 5 are the youngest on the list
Sonakshi Sinha (Age 25)
It was her performance in Lootera that did the trick for her. Critics raved about her performance and the PETA-supporter bettered her ranking in this year’s list. With four movies scheduled in 2014, Sinha (Rank 25) looks like she’s here to stay.
Saina Nehwal (Age 23)
At just 23, Nehwal (Rank 36) makes it to the list for the second time. While her total earnings dropped to Rs 9.92 crore, she still made it to the list due to her strong fame rank. Nehwal plays for the Hyderabad Hotshots in the Indian Badminton League.
