Profile
If 2012 was the year Mary Kom caught India's attention, 2014 was the year she became a household name. Bollywood's Priyanka Chopra played Mary Kom in a biopic on the champion boxer; the film has grossed over Rs 100 crore worldwide since its release in September. In October, Mary won gold at the Asian Games in South Korea. She's also big on the endorsement front, with 16 brands (including Vodafone, Tata Salt and Dalmia Cement) in her kitty.
