Interestingly, actress Katrina Kaif has beaten Congress party president Sonia Gandhi to occupy the fifth place. Kareena Kapoor is placed ninth in the list.

About 25,000 people from 23 countries participated in the poll that was conducted in two phases, in December 2014 and January 2015.
Initially, responses were sought from panelists in 34 countries to list their most admired men and women, which was then compiled into a list of 25 men and women.
In January, 23 of the 34 countries were asked to participate again, in which they had to list down who they truly admired and who they admired the most. The observations from both the rounds were combined to arrive at the final list.
