If you ever wondered why certain names are not spelt just as your teacher taught you to, then you are amongst many others who pull their hair in frustration when asked by their children why Bigg Boss is spelt the way it is, or why Singh is Kinng, not King? After all which emperor would not know how to spell the simple word, Kinng, oops, King?

Or why Imran is Emraan, Kiran Kirron, Ritesh Ritiesh, Sunil Suniel? Or why Kyunki Saas and not Kyonki Saas, Kkusum and not Kusum?

Himesh Reshammiya has an extra 'm' to his surname, with Aap Kaa Surroor' spelt like a ballad! The box office fate {HIT!} surprised one and all though.

Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai had two extra 'A's in it too; Mujhe Kucch Kehan Hai gave Tusshar a debut jubilee hit, Kyaa Kool Hain Hum was a run-away success, Jodhaa Akbar producers made a handsome profit too.

We already know how the Numbers game has fast caught up from leading actors, to film and TV stars and producers, to cricketers and corporate honchos, the common man not left far behind, Numerology has left us all spell bound, thinking whether the way our parents spelt our names is correct or not!

So we thought of 'consulting' the expert on the magic formula that seems to be working for Akshay Kumar.

Says Sanjay B Jumaani, India leading Numerologist {who declined the role of an inmate in Bigg Boss, Season 2 despite being pursued by Endeamol} on how the Numbers game has played a vital role {one role Akshay wouldn't want to cut!} in his Super Stardom {read Kinngdom!}:

In the June 2006 issue of Filmfare, when Akki was in his 40th year, and nowhere in the limelight, I had predicted that Akshay Kumar's 41st and 42nd year would be very eventful.

He is now in his 42nd (6) year, and 42 = 6, Number of Venus, planet of entertainment. {In fact 'Shahrukh Khan' adds to '42' by virtue of his name vibrations.}

Akshay is a # 9 {09/09} in Numerology and 2007 was = 9, the year when he started to flourish.

A Virgo ruled by #5, he rocked in his 41st year (41=5) last year.

'Khatron Ke Khiladi', the show that has fast become the trump card of new channel, 'COLORS' adds to 5, one of his lucky #'s too!

All his recent hits have been numerically corrected! Namastey London, Heyy Babyy, Bhool Bhulaiyaa were amongst them. Welcome, by default added up well, did well too.

We spelt Singh Is Kinng and are glad to know that the collections are historic, and it has got the highest opening by 'any film', leave alone an Akshay starrer.

We had asked Vipul to release the film on the 7th to avoid releasing on 08/08/2008 as that date would have been inauspicious for Vipul. In fact on the 7th, the film had a paid premier in 150 theaters across the country.

Some years ago, we also suggested Vipul Shah to spell his name as Vipul Amrutlal Shah. He soon after gave a hit, Aankhen, also spelt by us. Vipul's 'Waqt, A race against time' became, 'Waqt, 'The' Race against time.'

'Namaste London' became 'Namastey London'. Vipul was suggested to release it on the 24th; most thought it was suicidal to release a film when the World Cup was just on. But as fortune would have it, {at least in Vipuls case} India crashed out two days later on the 26th, losing to Bangladesh quite surprisingly and Namastey London went on to become a super hit too.

In Vipul's case we are hopeful and confident of a High 5 with London Dreams, also spelt by us.

Moving on to the 'Kinng', Akshay will remain in his 42nd year till 9th Sept, and his 43rd year begins. 43, though not amongst his lucky {or unlucky} Numbers, will be eventful too as 2008 is still on. His name which adds to 28 is the same # we get by adding 2008.

On his on-screen chemistry with the latest heart-throb, Katrina Kaif, Jumaani has the following to add:

'The names Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif both add to identical # 28; while Akki is an 'Earth' sign {Virgo}, Kats is 'Water' sign {Cancer} and Earth and Water have stayed together for ages!

In fact, Salman Khan, like Akki is also a # 9 Earth sign, {27/12} with whom she has on-screen as well as off-screen chemistry.

So the new Kinng on the block is here to stay, even if some may differ, and question 'KKKKK….Kinng?
