Shah Rukh Khan Now Calls Himself Charlie, Abhishek Bachchan Goes by Nandu Bhide

Bollywood actors Shah Rukh Khan and Abhishek Bachchan took their fans by surprise when they rechristened themselves Charlie and Nandu Bhide, respectively, on social networking site Twitter today.

Apun ne apna nam change kar dala!#NanduBhide #HNY #HappyNewYear

-- Nandu (@juniorbachchan) August 13, 2014

This sudden craze for new monikers can be traced back to upcoming film Happy New Year, in which both SRK and Abhishek star.

Others from the cast of Happy New Year also followed suit. Deepika Padukone changed her name to Mohini, Sonu Sood changed his to Jag, while Boman Irani is now called Tammy and Vivaan Shah is Roshan. (Also Read: Learned so Much From Shah Rukh Khan During Happy New Year, says Vivaan Shah)
