Flimstars drop surnames

Whats in a surname? It`s better to drop in in films, at least. There are many a star who have dropped their surnames in becoming popuar among their adience. Short names carry more weight with the fans. There is a long list of stars who dropped their big names to make it easy for their fans to call them by short names. The recently expired star Sridevi was really named Sriamma Yangar Appyan. Today`s Ranveer Singh is actually named Ranveer Singh Bhagnani. Tabu is really named Tabassum Hashmi. Yes, true that sometimes the directors or the producer rename their actors according to nurologist or astrologist to make their film a success. Bollywood`s pretty Asin is really Asin Thoikkul and Kajol is Kajol Mukherjee. Govinda`s real name is Govinda Arun Ahuja.
