In a spiritual role
Accepting everyone as they are is the way to spiritualism, says veteran actor Suresh Oberoi
Suresh OberoiChange is the way of life and we must accept it…is what Suresh Oberoi preaches and practices. A known actor with over 150 films to his credit where he essayed a variety of roles, including that of an inspector, Army Major, judge, public prosecutor to lottery-seller, one is rather used to his presence even if it’s been only on screen. On Friday, as he stepped down in a five-star hotel lobby, there were people falling to his feet giving him treatment befitting a saint. His lecture at the 13th Annual National Conference of Private Psychiatry left many moved.

ARIES: You can achieve quite a lot once you get going. Never trust a stranger. Socially, you may have some problems with a loved one; however, it will not be too serious. In close relationships, do not let friends and family get in the way.

The year ahead
If your birthday is October 7...
With the expressive Moon and stern Saturn in challenging aspect, you will have to bite your tongue. What you say can and will be used against you. You will feel better knowing that you did not participate in the attack on someone's good name. For a contented life, improve your mental toughness. Simply ignore those who approach you for temporary loans. New look, new outfits and new friends will be on the way. You will be unable to express your feelings to your beloved. You will suffer disappointment, as recognition and rewards that you were expecting get postponed. Pleasure trip will be satisfying.
