Any film star will have their hands full handling attention from the opposite sex, and no matter what they tell you, nothing quite prepares them for extra adulation from the same sex. But hey, they'd rather live with it — being a gay icon immediately doubles their fan base.

Ranbir Kapoor's claim to be a gay icon was substantiallly ‘butt-ressed’ by his towel dance in Saanwariya. And the young man is flattered to acknowledge it. "For me, Madonna has been a great gay icon. Now after the amendment in section 377, a lot of gays are coming out of the closet. I personally think it is one of the best things to happen to us." Us actors, we hope he means.
