New Delhi: Search giant Google on Wednesday released a list of this year's top 10 trending personalities in India and surprisingly, Sonam Gupta -- the name synonymous with betrayal that ruled social media through the year, especially post-demonetisation -- made a surprise entry at No 3.

Sonam Gupta is at the third spot, right behind US President-elect Donald Trump and Olympic medallist PV Sindhu.

The fictitious name first appeared on a torn Rs 10 note in August this year and was back on a new Rs 2,000 note after demonetisation of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes, and went viral on various social media platforms with the tagline (written in Devanagari) "Sonam Gupta Bewafa Hai (Sonam Gupta is unfaithful)".

Images of currency notes from various countries with the phrase made an appearance across Internet with many users also jumping into the buzz defending the mysterious Gupta.
