uday, I think you'll want to just prefix your values, then you can iterate
over the POST and turn it into a dictionary:
<input name="profile-name"/>
<input name="profile-email"/>
profile = {}
for k in request.POST.keys():
if k.startswith('profile-'):
profile[k[len('profile-'):]] = request.POST.get(k)
name = profile.get('name', 'Bob')
