Very often, name of some celebrities have close resemblance to some word of our language.We often tease the celebrity with this word. Isn't it?
For example, 'Thoni' in Malayalam means a boat. Thoni is similar to M.S.Dhoni. Isn't it?
So whenever India fails, we will say 'Dhoni's thoni sink' :laugh:
Can you find such words in your language?

Whenever I remember Indira, this reminds me of India. Besides a well known artist compared to her as a Goddess who always fought with evil.
