In a fascinating exploration of beauty, a scientific study conducted by London-based cosmetic surgeon Dr. Julian De Silva has placed Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan in the 10th position on the list of the world's most handsome men.

Utilizing advanced facial mapping software, Dr. De Silva measured facial symmetry according to the "Greek Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi," a mathematical principle used to determine aesthetic appeal.

The Golden Ratio, introduced by the Greeks, seeks to quantify beauty by establishing that facial proportions closest to the number 1.618 (Phi) are deemed more attractive. This method evaluates various facial features, including the shape of the eyes, eyebrows, chin, and nose, to assess overall symmetry and perfection.

Dr. De Silva, who heads the Centre for Advanced Facial Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery in London, stated, “These new computer mapping techniques allow us to solve some of the mysteries of physical beauty.”

While Aaron Taylor-Johnson topped the list with a score of 93.04%, Shah Rukh Khan achieved a respectable 86.76%. Despite being praised for his "wonderfully square chin and lips," Khan's score was slightly affected by the shape of his nose.

Other notable actors on the list include George Clooney and Robert Pattinson, underscoring the wide range of appeal in contemporary male beauty. This study highlights not only Khan's enduring charm but also the fascinating intersection of science and aesthetics.
