According to NDTV, Shahid has dethroned chart-topping pop star Zayn Malik, who has been awarded the accolade for the past two years. Shahid has also managed to beat Hrithik Roshan in the voted survey - where Hrithik takes the second spot on the list - while stars Zayn Malik and Fawad Khan feature on third and sixth spots.
I would like to thank everyone who voted for me. I am humbled by the desirable tag. I believe sexy is not only to do with the physical, but as much to do with the mental perspective on life. This one is for all those fans who have loved and supported me,” Shahid said.
The youngest in the list is Pakistani 20-year-old singer and musician Danyal Zafar, who is the younger brother of Ali Zafar who has entered the top 50 for the first time. The oldest in the list is yet again 52-year-old Shahrukh Khan.
Last week, Priyanka Chopra was named the Sexiest Asian Woman while Pakistani diva Mahira Khan ranked fifth.
