Question
According to Wikipedia, famous Indian/Bollywood actor Ajay Devgan "professionally" goes by "Ajay Devgn". But why is this? The last syllable of his name is literally pronounced "gun" (which is commonly romanized as "gan"). So why change it to Devgn for "professional" use? Is there something I'm missing here?
Answer
According to this article, sources allegedly close to Ajay Devgan say that he made the change in his name at the behest of his mother, due to numerology-related reasons for health/success.
