Can a change in name make you a big star?
CHANGE IN SPELLING VERSUS CHANGE IN NAME
The last few years have seen actors make changes in the spellings of their names based on Numerology, to bring them luck. This, they feel, is a better option than changing the whole name. However, Numerologist Anupam V Kapil believes, “A complete name change, when done correctly, can open the floodgates for fame and success. Just altering and deleting alphabets does not change the way people pronounce your name, so no new phonetic sound is generated to create a new identity.”
Over the decades, a number of actors changed their names for the screen and many of them even went on to become legends
