Titles play an important role in the success of a film. A befitting title acts as a hanger to hook people’s interest to the film. As soon as a production house registers a title in the Film Chamber, hype surrounds it giving rise to numerous speculations on the film’s plot. Heroes and makers go through many brain-storming sessions before fixing title for their movies.

If they don’t observe positive vibes for a certain ‘feeler’ title, they will ignore it and go for another one. Some directors are releasing teasers of their films even before finalizing the titles.
