Astrolife.com Bought From People Group By Business...

Read this on Medianama, about the takeover of Astrolife.com by Raj Rao from the Poeple Group ( Shaadi.com ).
I guess it was not a big enough opportunity for People Group, but it is a good move by Raj as the project does seem to have a lot of potential, considering the amount of faith people globally have on the science of astrology.
All the best to Raj Rao.
Regards,
Ajay
