The stage name of the actor holds immense importance in the success of the actor.

Many actors and actresses have changed their real name or birth name and have opted another name before they became the star. Well the actors and actresses tend to also play with the spelling name by adding or removing a few alphabets in order to make the name a good omen as numerology.

1): Pritam Singh-

Preity Zinta

The beautiful, bubbly and chirpy actress who had amazing acting skills and was talk of the town with her Liril advertisement. Her real name given to her by parents were Pritam Singh, but as she entered the world of modeling she changed it to Preity Zinta and it suits her so well.

2): Kat Turuquotte-

Katrina Kaif

Well the super model turned actress who is presently the highest paid Bollywood actress was named Kat Turquotee by her parents. Her fame name continues to be Kat.

5): Bhanurekha Ganeshan-

Bhanurekha Ganeshan
