May 30, 2020

New Delhi: Famous astrologer Bejan Daruwalla died at a private hospital in Ahmedabad last evening, his family said. He was 89.

His son Nastur Daruwalla denied the speculation on social media that his father had contracted Coronavirus. Daruwalla was suffering from only pneumonia, he said. The Apollo Hospital confirmed that Daruwalla died during treatment.

An ardent devotee of Lord Ganesha, Daruwalla once admitted his whole family is into astrology. Daruwalla, says his website, was once asked by the Dalai Lama to put his hand on the Tibetan Spiritual Leader’s head at the India International Centre in Delhi. 

Among his most famous predictions is the one about Narendra Modi beating his competitors hands down to “win the game.” He made the prophecy just before the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

“Narendra Modi’s Moon and Mars are together. Moon is for popularity and Mars is for energy. The combination of two makes him a winning material. For all these reasons, Narendra Modi will win the game,” was his prediction ahead of the polls.
