As we are about to enter 2023, the list of the most Googled people in India in 2022 is out now. From actor Sushmita Sen to Kacha Badam fame Anjali Arora, the list comprises people from multiple fields. The top 10 list includes the likes of actors, political figures, reality show personalities, and more.
