Mahesh Bhatt’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Mahesh Bhatt was born on Monday, 20 September 1948, in Mumbai, India. Their zodiac sign is Virgo, with the Moon in Aries. Mahesh turns 78 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Mahesh, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Of the ten planets, four are in fire signs, two in earth, two in air and two in water. By modality the count is four cardinal, three fixed and three mutable. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Venus and Neptune: a sextile, exact to a tenth of a degree. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. No planet was retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds ten other people born on 20 September, among them Sophia Loren, George R. R. Martin and Tarō Asō. George R. R. Martin was born on the very same day.

Mahesh Bhatt’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Virgo
about 27° Virgo at midday
A Virgo Sun refines. Mahesh Bhatt is likely to notice what could be better and quietly make it so, keeping the highest standards for themselves. The art of this placement is knowing when good enough is the wiser choice.
Moon sign
Aries
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
With the Moon in Aries, Mahesh is likely to feel fast and forgive fast. Anger comes up quickly and passes just as quickly, and feeling needs a physical outlet. This is a Moon soothed by action, not by talking it over.
Rising sign
The rising sign changes about every two hours, so it cannot be known without a birth time. The table below shows which sign was rising over Mumbai, India, at each hour of the day.
Mahesh Bhatt’s rising sign, by birth time

Until then, this is the rising sign for every possible time of birth on 20 September 1948, computed for Mumbai, India.

Mahesh Bhatt’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Mahesh Bhatt’s private life.
A Virgo Sun finds purpose in being useful and doing a job properly, and Mahesh Bhatt's energy tends to stay steady as long as there is a task worth doing well. Rest is the hard part, because it can feel undeserved until everything is fixed. Typically a piece of work is still being adjusted long after everyone else would call it finished.
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Mahesh, comfort probably comes from action rather than discussion. The instinct of this Moon is to pace the room or go for a walk rather than sit with a feeling until it passes on its own.
Mercury in Libra thinks by weighing both sides, and Mahesh tends to communicate diplomatically, often finding the version of an idea that will land well with whoever is listening. Settling on an opinion can take so long that the moment for it passes. They may change their mind in the middle of a conversation because the other point had merit.
Venus in Leo loves generously and openly, and values being someone's clear favourite above almost anything else on offer. For Mahesh, the tension this suggests is needing steady reassurance of still being adored. Their gestures tend to be grand and thoughtful, and it can sting when those go unnoticed.
In Mahesh's chart, Mars in Scorpio acts with focus and intensity, and its anger, when it surfaces, tends to be controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The risk with this Mars is holding on to a grievance well past its useful life. A calm exterior gives little warning before a sharp response.
Jupiter in Sagittarius
20° Sagittarius 57' at midday
growth and excess
With Jupiter in Sagittarius, Mahesh is likely to grow through travel, study and direct experience of things bigger than ordinary life. The excess may be promising more than circumstances can deliver, out of optimism rather than dishonesty. This Jupiter carries a conviction that things will work out, and other people borrow it when theirs runs low.
Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. Mahesh may feel like a fraud even when the track record says otherwise. The usual result is someone quietly excellent at something long before they will admit it out loud.
Uranus in Cancer
0° Cancer 27' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Cancer belongs to an age group rather than to Mahesh alone. Its mark is a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures the previous generation grew up inside. At the personal level it is read as a pull to build family life differently.
Neptune in Libra
12° Libra 08' at midday
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Mahesh among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.
Pluto in Leo
15° Leo 48' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for Mahesh, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Mahesh Bhatt’s chart
How the planets stand to each other, tightest first. Without a birth time the orbs are those at midday, and aspects to the Moon are left out because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day.
Venus sextile Neptune
about 0.0° at midday
Romance and creative warmth tend to be within easy reach for Mahesh Bhatt, thanks to a gentle working link between affection and imagination. The tenderness is soft and pleasant, not an intense longing, and it is the sort that makes ordinary moments with someone feel a little more meaningful.
Saturn sextile Uranus
about 0.3° at midday
Discipline and independence combine in this sextile to give Mahesh a workable way of keeping a routine while leaving room to change it. The flexibility is quiet and sustainable, and it keeps a good habit from calcifying into an unquestioned rule.
Venus square Mars
about 0.9° at midday
Desire and the need for harmony can clash where Venus squares Mars, and Mahesh may be caught between wanting something and wanting to keep the peace. What the aspect asks for is a want voiced directly, before it leaks out sideways.
Mercury sextile Jupiter
about 1.8° at midday
Mahesh's thinking and optimism keep easy company, which gives their conversation a natural, engaging breadth. Curiosity does much of the work with this aspect, opening doors in conversation that a narrower focus would have missed.
Sun square Uranus
about 3.3° at midday
When the Sun is square Uranus, Mahesh's identity keeps bumping against a need to break from convention, which can look like sudden changes of direction that surprise the people nearby. The skill is choosing those disruptions rather than letting restlessness choose them.
Venus conjunction Pluto
about 3.7° at midday
Love tends to run deep and complete under Venus conjunct Pluto, and Mahesh is likely to lean towards intensity over casual affection. Relationships gain depth from it. What takes practice is trusting a connection without needing to test it to prove it is real.
The rest, listed without a reading. Those between Uranus, Neptune and Pluto hold for years at a time, so everyone born while one holds shares it.

How this page is made
Planet positions are computed with the astronomy-engine ephemeris and checked against Swiss Ephemeris. Birth dates and places come from Wikidata; birth times, where StarMap has one, come from Astro-Databank and are shown with their Rodden rating. The readings describe what a placement is traditionally taken to mean. They are written by StarMap for reflection and entertainment, not as statements about the person’s private life. New to charts?
