Commonly mispronounced words 69 - Sourav Ganguly

The last name in this series was also a cricketer. But this one would surely surprise you. You always thought he was सौरव गांगुली right?
Wrong!

There is no word called सौरव in Sanskrit. The word is सौरभ. In Bangla it is pronounced as शौरोभ. But in either case, the way you have been pronouncing the name is wrong. 

The correct pronunciation is 

sowrabh gaangulii or showroobh gaangulii
सौरभ or शौरोभ गांगुली 
সৌরভ গাঙ্গুলি
