Hyderabad, March 13 Bollywood stars Shah Rukh Khan (SRK) and Katrina Kaif are officially the king and queen of mobile content, according to findings of a new research undertaken by IMI Mobile, a value-added services provider for the telecom industry.

The study notes that Bollywood’s popularity is at an all-time high, and that actors Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Akshay Kumar and Sanjay Dutt make it to the top five along with SRK, to become the five most downloaded movie stars in terms of mobile content. Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra, Lara Dutta and Aishwarya Rai all feature along with Katrina in the top five female Bollywood actors.

The mobile content ranges from ringtones of a film’s big hits to graphics and wallpapers of the stars. The study was based on blockbuster movies of last year.
