We
may
have
seen
kids
wanting
to
name
their
toys
after
Bollywood
heroes,
but
what's
unusual
is
to
see
goats
being
named
after
superstars.
It's
quite
amusing
to
know
that
goat
sellers
in
Delhi
named
their
best
goats
after
the
top
actors
such
as
Shahrukh
khan
and
Salman
Khan.
This
was
special
offer
on
the
occasion
of
Bakrid
which
was
celebrated
on
October
16.
The
goat-sellers
did
this
to
make
maximum
sales
and
profits.
They
chose
the
best
looking
and
muscular
goats
and
named
them
after
the
Khans
of
Bollywood.
The
prices
for
these
star
goats
ranged
from
Rs
15,000
to
5
lakhs.
A
seller
made
a
huge
profit
by
selling
his
star
goat
for
a
whooping
amount.
"I
named
my
healthiest
goat
Salman
Khan
and
it
sold
for
Rs
1,35,000," said
Chand
of
Arshad
Halal
Meat
Shop.
Although
we
may
assume
that
this
trend
of
naming
goats
after
Bollywood
stars
is
new,
the
sellers
tell
us
otherwise.
We
hear
that
this
took
place
even
in
the
past
years.
In
2012,
a
pair
of
goats
named
Saifeena
(star
couple
Saif
Ali
Khan
And
Kareena
Kapoor)
were
sold
for
Rs
4
lakhs
at
Jama
Masjid.
The
sellers
said
that
they
get
their
goats
from
Bulandshahar.
These
goats
are
healthy,
have
a
glossy
coat
without
any
deformities
and
marks.
These
goat-sellers
even
decorate
these
star
goats
with
accessories
to
attract
customers.
They
paint
the
horns
of
the
goats
in
bright
colours
and
tie
colourful
leashes
and
anklets.
