India has voted and chosen the Times 50 Most Desirable Men of 2013. The 7.34 lakh votes received online on www.- itimes.com/polls along with our vote decided the winners. Hyderabad Times talks to Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu who tops the list.

You've been chosen the most desirable man in India. How does it feel? 

It's great to be appreciated and loved by fans from across the nation. I'm happy and would like to thank everyone who has voted me to this position.

You've pipped some of Bollywood's hottest men to reach this position. So, what makes you so desirable?

It's not for me to answer that! Maybe you could tell me. I try to make my fans happy by working hard in every film of mine and I give my films everything I've got. If you ask me honestly, I just feel great to be a part of the group along with my peers.

In a fiercely competitive industry, do you feel a sense of achievement reaching this top position ahead of others?

Over the years, I have worked very hard to achieve what I have so far. But I've not been alone in this journey. A lot of the credit for this goes to my fans — it's because of them that I'm here today. I'm quite shy, so it's overwhelming when this kind of recognition comes my way. I'd like to say a big thank you to all those who love me and recognise the work that I do.

How would you define your desirability?

I really don't know the secret to it, but I'd like to think my desirability is a combination of my personality, my image and most importantly, the kind of films I do.

Almost every Bollywood actress, be it Deepika Padukone or Sonam Kapoor, has told us they find you desirable and want to work with you. What's the secret of your pan-India popularity?

Deepika and Sonam are beautiful actors and I've loved some of the work they've done. Hopefully, we will be able to work on some film together sooner or later.

We've seen you work on your looks of late — your fitness, fashion, grooming. Can you share with us some tips?

In fitness, there are no short cuts. It involves immense discipline and hard work. I've worked hard on my body for the last two years for a film I was working on. I'm glad people have noticed that. Regarding fashion, I must admit that I don't follow trends. I wear what makes me comfortable. In our industry, being fit and fashionable are a given. But I prefer to leave my dressing in my films to my designers.

Who is the most desirable woman for you?

That's simple — it has to be my wife Namrata!

Will we see you crossing over to Bollywood soon?

If there is a great story that comes my way, I'd surely give it a shot!
