Determining an "all-time" national crush is subjective and changes over time, influenced by popularity, media presence, and public opinion. While the title is informal, Taha Shah Badussha, particularly after his role as Tajdar in "Heeramandi," has recently garnered significant attention and could be considered a current national crush.
Here's a breakdown of why this question is tricky and a look at how someone might be considered a "national crush":
-
Subjectivity: There's no official "National Crush" title. It's a term used informally by the media and public to describe someone who is widely admired and popular.
-
Time Sensitivity: The "national crush" changes frequently with trends and new celebrities emerging. Someone incredibly popular today might be less so in a few years.
-
Popular contenders change with time: While there's no official listing or criteria, some male celebrities who have enjoyed immense popularity and "national crush" status in India at various points in time include:
- Taha Shah Badussha: Recently gained massive popularity from Heeramandi.
- Ranbir Kapoor: Known for his charming personality and acting skills, has maintained consistent popularity.
- Shah Rukh Khan: A Bollywood icon whose fan base has been strong for decades.
- Virat Kohli: A sports personality, admired for his skills and persona.
Therefore, while Taha Shah Badussha is currently enjoying considerable popularity and could be argued as a recent "national crush," defining an "all-time" national crush is challenging due to the evolving nature of popularity and public perception.
