SRK's Ghajini moment?


One wondered why Shahrukh Khan's most ambitious project RaOne is named after the villain in the film, and not the super hero G1 that he plays (G stands for his wife Gauri and One is his position in the industry as per witty and immodest star). 

SRK tried to solve this for us. He gave examples of Sholay, Mr India and Sadak, saying that the villainous characters Gabbar Singh, Mogambo and Maharani (Sadashiv Amrapurkar's character in Sadak) in these films became extremely popular, larger than life and they are remembered till now. Hence he decided to name his film after the film's villain who is called RaOne. But Shahrukh, you forgot the most apt example - and the most recent film of all that belonged to your arch rival - Aamir Khan's Ghajini. Wasn't the super successful film Ghajini named after the villain in the film? Was the amnesia deliberate?
