THE TIARA REPORT

The TIARA Report is the largest and most comprehensive study of celebrities in India. Here below are the details:

  • A sample size of 60,000 respondents pan India
  • 23 cities (Delhi including NCR), Mumbai (including Thane), Chennai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Surat, Pune (including Pimpri & Chinchwad), Jaipur, Lucknow, Kanpur, Nagpur, Vishakhapatnam, Indore, Bhopal, Patna, Vadodara, Ghaziabad, Ludhiana and Agra
  • 180 celebrities: 69 from Bollywood (37 male, 32 female); 67 from Television (46 male, 21 female), 37 from Sports (30 male, 7 female), and 7 celebrity ‘power couples’
  • The field study was conducted by Japanese research agency Rakuten

TIARA is an acronym for Trust, Identify, Attractive, Respect and Appeal. The study uses the research data across 64 active attributes covering image, personality and human factors and a battery of confirmatory statements to quantify key celebrity dimensions.

Industry veteran, Dr. Sandeep Goyal who is past President of Rediffusion, ex-Group CEO of Zee Telefilms and former Chairman of Dentsu India, chairs the Advisory Board of IIHB. Dr. Goyal is a PhD in Celebrity Studies from FMS-Delhi.

Dr. Manohar L Singla, former Dean of FMS-Delhi, and Prof. Siddhartha Singh of ISB are senior academics on the IIHB Board. Mr. D Nandkishore, former Global Executive Board Member of Nestle SA, Switzerland brings in the expertise from industry. B Narayanaswamy, former MD of Ipsos, a research veteran has been providing thought leadership in the design of the study.

Ashish Dabral, who has had over 30 years at leading advertising agencies Ogilvy, Contract, and Dentsu has coordinated, and overseen, the study and analysis.

HOW THIS REPORT IS DIFFERENT 

“The sample size of the TIARA Report is 25% bigger than the universe of TRP data collection currently being done by BARC. Our respondent base is 60,000; while BARC covers 44,000 respondent homes. So, the study is comprehensive and representative of the entire India market. We have covered 23 cities. No study on celebrities hitherto has been so detailed and exhaustive,” says Dr.Goyal. “We have used 64 active attributes in the analysis of every single celebrity. Totally, there are over 100 data points that have been used in the analysis. This report, for the first time, provides a DNA analysis of almost every prominent celebrity in the country. More importantly, our proprietary tools allow cross comparisons across celebrities, attributes, demographics, cities and more.”

Other category toppers include:

Most Respected: Amitabh Bachchan

HOW WILL THIS RESEARCH BENEFIT THE INDUSTRY

  • First ever research & data driven de-construction of individual celebrities
  • Cross-industry comparisons are done through rigorous benchmarking, which allows differential weightages to be used depending on the attribute
  • Brand owners can compare multiple celebrities in consonance with their own lead attributes of brands; hence arrive at a ‘best-fit’ option for brand ambassadors
  • Celebrities and their agents can use the report to ‘sell’ their goodness and value to clients for endorsement deals
  • Content houses and TV channels can use the report to better understand real heroes in their usage in reel avatars
