This new year, bringing with it a blank slate and a fresh start , will be crucial for some more than others. Take a look at what numerologists Sanjay B Jumaani and Suniiel Naik have to say about these six headline-grabbers.
Aamir Khan
Everything-I-touch-becomes-a-box-office-hit Aamir Khan is governed by 5 (Mercury), 3 (Jupiter), and 2 (the moon). His two major releases for 2011, Dhobi Ghat and Delhi Belly, give 5, one of his lucky numbers, which portends well. The number has stood him in good stead in the past — his 3 Idiots was also a 5. He can expect a few more awards in 2011, even if not an Oscar. (Sanjay B Jumaani)
Mahendra Singh Dhoni
Numerology-conscious Dhoni is governed by the numbers 7 (Neptune), 2 (Moon) and 6 (Venus). The skipper sports a 7 on his jersey and also wears a pendant with the same number. He is now in his 30th year and 3 is Jupiter, the planet of wealth, perhaps explaining his mind-boggling ad-signing spree. However, India’s chances at the World Cup this year do not look too bright.

Rahul Gandhi
AICC general secretary Rahul Gandhi is a number 1, indicating a creative, inventive and strongly-individual personality. In 2011, Rahul will be in the year of 1 — a good time to take up few more challenges. However, January and February are weak months for him, while the period till June 19 is good. From June 20, he needs to play a wait-and-watch game. (Suniiel Naik)
Mamata Banerjee
The Trinamool Congress leader is dominated by numbers 5 and 8, which are good for a political career. This year she will turn 57. Her name number, personal year number and the 57th year will be favourable. The Assembly polls should go well for her — the future leader of West Bengal, it seems, is Mamata. (SN)
Noel Tata
Noel Tata is considered to be the frontrunner to take the reins from Ratan Tata. In his 54th year now, he will enter his 55th year in 2011 and both the numbers (9 and 1) are lucky for him in terms of succession. It is quite possible that on the 107th birth anniversary of JRD Tata, on July 29, 2011, the Tata heir will be announced and Ratan Tata’s half-brother has a good chance of being that successor. (SN)
M K Stalin
Tamil Nadu chief minister M Karunanidhi’s son M K Stalin is influenced by numbers 1 and 4. If elections are announced in April or May 2011, Stalin would be entering his 58th year, which will be one of challenges, hard work, delays and misunderstandings. He needs to sort out any difference he may have with brother Azhagiri. Fortunately for him, Stalin will also be in his personal year, 8, which is one of power. (SN)
