Elizabeth Hurley is used to basking in the limelight, but if you've noticed her business tycoon hubby alongside, you'll see that he has a suave sense of style.

Abhay Deol

The new breed of Bollywood actors is laid-back, charming and all about casual cool. Abhay tends to carry off his jeans as well as that cheeky, winning grin of his!

Anand Mahindra

When you're running a business empire, you've got to dress the part. Just ask Mr Mahindra, who's as debonair as ever in his well-cut suits and impeccable neckties.

Raghavendra Rathore

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

There are designers who constantly deck up in outrageous clothing, just to draw attention to their labels. Thankfully, Raghavendra Rathore is not one of them -- we're always spotting him at fashion weeks in exquisitely tailored jackets and well-fitted pants.

Leander Paes

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

Our tennis ace looks athletic both on and off the court. And that's because he knows how to carry off everything from a pair of shorts to designer suits.

Farhan Akhtar

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

The Rock On star wowed us with his rocker avatar in the movie and is known for his eclectic taste when it comes to wardrobe affairs. We put that down to his chic hairstylist wife Adhuna's influence, what say?

Manmohan Singh

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

Yup, our PM made it to the list too! In addition to his gentlemanly demeanour and extensive education, it helps that Mr Singh is always well turned out. Now that's what you call power dressing!

Krishnamachari Bose

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

It's not often that artists pay much attention to their personal appearance, but Bose is known for his snazzy sense of style. No wonder his paintings are so colourful too -- we like!

Hrithik Roshan

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

His much-hyped release Kites may have flopped, but the golden boy of Bollywood still managed to give his fans something to gawk at on the red carpet, like he always does.

Omar Abdullah

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

At the age of 40, the J&K chief minister cuts a relatively young figure in Parliament -- and a dashing one at that. If you've ever seen him in a crisp white kurta and sunglasses, you'll be inclined to agree!

Dino Morea

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

Dino's sense of style is simple but fresh. It's probably his Italian genes that have something to do with the fact that almost anything looks good on him!

Praful Patel

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

Our Minister of State for Civil Aviation seems to believe in both high flying and high fashion. In addition to starched white linen, it's refreshing to see Mr Patel in chinos and casual shirts when he's relaxing. If only a few of our other netas learned to unwind in the same manner too!

Shah Rukh Khan

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

The credit for King Khan's wardrobe goes, of course, to his lovely wife Gauri -- he's said so himself! Her great taste always has the actor looking every inch the superstar he is and is what ushered him into the GQ list.

Milind Soman

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

He is one of India's best-known male models and with his smouldering looks, Milind could well carry off a potato sack if we put him in it. Fortunately, he knows better than to wear one (!) and looks as great off the ramp as he does on it.

Purab Kohli

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

This actor has a young, fresh, hip look -- not something everyone many in the top 50 are known for. If you're thinking trendy, Purab's choice of apparel should fit right in.

Ratan Tata

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

The chairman of the Tata Group is likely the most nattily dressed in the Indian business world. Who else do you know with an affinity for Hermes ties and matching handkerchiefs folded neatly into the breast pocket?

Saif Ali Khan

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

Surprise, surprise, another Khan made it to the top 50! Saif is known to take fashion risks (some of which he takes a beating for in the press), but then again, he scores full marks on individuality. And hey, if you look great in rugged denims and an exquisitely tailored suit too, that counts for something, right?

Shashi Tharoor

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

With the whole IPL fracas and his ouster from the Ministry of External Affairs, it may surprise you to know that Shashi Tharoor can do something right. But let's give credit where it's due -- he's one of the better-dressed Indian politicians for sure. Now if only he doesn't tweet about that!

Yuvraj Singh

Last updated on: June 8, 2010 18:58 IST

And finally, let's give this sulky cricketer a reason to smile. You made it too, Yuvi -- we like how you're always turned out right at social functions. So the next time you step onto the pitch, give us something to smile about too!
