Ekta kapur and her personal astrologer sunita menon are the nasty jodi who started this pathetic trend of adding unnecassary alphabets. i tell you what the content of ektas serials has no ‘sir-pair’ and she believes by adding these alphabets, her serials are gonna work. kasamh se,kkavyanjali, kausauti zindagi kay are nothing but humongous pile of shit. (I have neva seen them but i can bet) few years ago i didnt quite understand the “spelling mistakes” in the name of every serial’s name. later i figured out that this tika lagane wali ekta is extremely superstitious.. i mean she goes to the extent of asking horoscopes of the actors as well(urrggh!). and now every television actor has had her/his name changed. please find sum1 who can sue her on d grounds of abusing english ow she mite keep us iritated for the next 20-30 years

English is abused everywhere if you look around, even in my country. People are saying as long as I understand the meaning, it’s okay and of course the purists don’t like it. Think it’s creative abusing rather, more for creating a storyline or for marketing reasons for new products, as what Vivek says.

When will they learn to place the “h” in right place.

About that extra ‘g’ .. it’s like “Asoka” movie.
It’s a marketing trick. It creates an extra buzz, a new trivia, a reason to talk about the movie. (You know, it’s working … hehe )

Good one Ashish

DJ – Actually, it just does not limit to the names of serials, it is same for names of a person too. The bad part in this is – why these guys dont think logically? I am a movie buff and it pisses me off when I see some odd spellings for movie names, take example of Zindaggi Rocks, it just does not make any sense.

Watching serials or movie does not matter here but the post is more about foolishness going around on the name of numerology or say on the name of earning more profits..

But yea, this thing also fade away as the time passes…

Actually,

No one cares what English they use..

The people who crazily love the show, watch the shows and are more interested in the crying and bitching and accidents that go on and on in the show.. that they don’t care about the above..

While, the people who craziliy hate the show…well.. don’t really give a fcsk about it

don’t know about numbers in K-gang, but posting a successful reply on your blog definitely depends on numbers

On an average – nobody cares. I don’t know why but standards of television / music are very low in this country. Although the talent is there, it’s just that the standards are low. And mediocrity is acceptable. And numerology is *cool*
