Is it true that a person born in the moola nakshatram brings danger to the person's father-in-law?

[A satsaṅga took place between Swami and several devotees who visited Him on January 16, 2021. Some of the questions of devotees answered by Swāmi are given below.]

[A question by Smt. Anita Renukuntla]

Swāmi replied: The danger that comes to a person is not because of planets (grahas) or stars, but because of his own bad karma done in the past. Even when the birth stars (nakṣatras) of many daughters-in-law are not mūla nakṣatra, do their fathers-in-law not die? For example, a police inspector arrested a thief on the road. The thief is now claiming that he was peacefully walking on the road and that the inspector rudely arrested him and dragged him into his jeep. Why would the inspector arrest him, if he had not committed the theft earlier? Some people say that they suffered some loss or damage at a certain time as the positions of certain planets were not good. People often mistakenly think that they face problems due to planetary movements (graha sañcāra or gocāra). The real reason is only their karma or actions. The planets (planet-deities) are only the delivery-agents of their karma phalas (fruits of their deeds). They can catch you no matter where you are. The good fruits of your own good karma and the bad fruits of your own bad karma are delivered to you by the planets. You are blaming the Judge (God) and the jailer (planets) for delivering the punishment. But why would they punish you, if you did not commit any sin? You are solely responsible for every fruit you receive. Both Jyotiṣa Śāstra (Vedic astrology) and Vedanta Śāstra (spiritual knowledge) go hand-in-hand. Some false astrologers have created a misconception that your suffering is due to some planetary movements. It is God, who passes the judgments over souls and He decides which fruits are to be delivered to which soul at what time. Although planets have no involvement in giving the judgments, some astrologers have given extreme importance to the planets, just to commercialize Jyotiṣa Śāstra for their earnings. As a result, even the importance of God is reduced before the planets.
