From mega weddings to red carpets, 2024 provided ample opportunity for A-listers to grab all the attention. Ranveer Singh dancing at the ‘Ambani wedding’, Diljit Dosanjh outperforming Beyonce, and Orry being Orry. ThePrint formed a jury to identify those who made sure that the spotlight stayed on them—whether by flaunting their wealth or calling paparazzis to turn up at their door.
Jurors:
Shobhaa De
Columnist, author and A-lister watchdog, Shobha De is who DietSabya wishes they were.
Bhawna Sharma
Stylist to the stars and their shows, Bhawna Sharma has seen A-listers without their coat of armour
Manav Mangali
As one of India’s paparazzi moguls, he’s supposed to be chasing the stars. But sometimes, they chase him
Attention seekers
Deepinder Goyal: Zomato founder’s social media strategies, usually posted on X, create quite a stir.
Diljit Dosanjh: From Burning Man to Burnt (out) Man—overpriced and under performed.
Kangana Ranaut: The journey from getting slapped to getting elected
Kartik Aaryan: He loves being in front of the camera so much that he calls the paps to be photographed
Orry: From “I am a Liver” to “I am a loser”—in one short year.
Ranveer Singh: For flamboyance, because who else can do it like him. And we love him for it
Uorfi Javed: She’s the one to watch out for. She’s not quite there yet, but is climbing her way up the celebrity ladder
Wealth flaunters
Kriti Sanon: Always dresses well. Have you seen her airport style?
Khushi Kapoor: At parties, she’s the self-appointed ambassador for brands. And there’s always a luxury bag in tow
Orry: He has the social capital and the wealth. Both do the talking; it’s a two-way street.
Shalini Passi: ‘I really love my trillions—they are good for my skin.’
Sonam Kapoor: She’s a 10, and she knows it. Most fashionable, she has always turned out well in couture.
