Why was 'Mangal Pandey' a let down

Superstitions are aloof in the film industry. Why! That would be a lie! One can't say that only the film industry is affected by it, as a matter of fact, the whole world is affected by it. Be it sports, industry, movies, everybody wants to look up at the stars and ask questions about the future. Some of us look in the numbers, so we went ahead and asked our favourite numerologist Mr. Niraj Mancchanda about what happened to 'Mangal Pandey'? Can numerology tell us why Aamir's 'Mangal Pandey' didn't do as well as expected?

The world was waiting for Aamir Khan's Mangal Pandey as he was coming after 4 years. The advance booking was extraordinary and everbody in the film industry said it's already cashed all the moolah at the box office and the numerologist Sanjay Jumaani predicted on television on his show that it would be a superduper hit but Niraj Mancchanda was the only person who predicted on 11/8/2005 in DNA that "Mangal Pandey will be a big let down".

Yes, it raked in a lot of money, but speaking in terms of box-office, it may just settle for an average and be only a commission earner... so what went wrong?

According to Mancchanda "Mangal Pandey comes to number 41 but by adding 'The Rising' with the title the number changed. Therefore the box office result also changed. "I checked with tarot and it showed the same results that the movie will be a big let down". So has the genius lost his touch? Mancchanda further adds "Its not that Aamir has lost his touch. Its just that he cannot fight the planet saturn. Aamir is born on 14/3/1965 and his Moon is in Cancer. From more than past two and half years his Sade Sati is going on. The first two and half years are very problemetic. This is when he had family problems and signed Mangal Pandey. That period is over. The second two and half years are average. He is presently going through the second phase of Sade Sati. In the third phase of Sade Sati i.e after 2 and half years he will bounce back again in a big way".
