I love this movie so much

Wow! Such a good movie.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Whats Your Rashee, is a very very well made film. The film is about marriage and the zodiac signs. The film has Priyanka Chopra enacting 12 different roles and looks, and what performances man! She is just fantabulous! I was neutral about Priyanka Chopra, but Fashion, Kaminey and Whats Your Rashee made me love her completely! The direction is not up to the mark if compared to previous ventures by Ashutosh Gowariker (Lagaan, Swades, Jodhaa Akhbar), maybe it is because of the genre change, Ashutosh is directing a romantic comedy for the first time.Music is a revelation, Ashutosh was stuck to A.R.Rahman, whos compositions are beautiful. This time Sohail Sen took the music directors seat and did a fantastic job, all songs are extremely melodious and shot nicely. Sohail Sen has a very nice voice himself and therefore crooned a few songs of the film, even Ashutosh Gowariker did a track and that sounds nice too, double thumbs up to the music department.Harman Baweja has acted nice too for the first time after a string of bad performances (Love story 2050, Victory), although he looks kind of stiff sometimes and his body language needs some improvement on screen, Darshan as Devu does a very nice job and is very impactful.The music video Whats Your Rashee, which is the last song of the movie has been shot so beautifully, a really innovative video, and very enjoyable too.I am rating this movie 9 out of 10, would have rated it 7 otherwise, but the Priyanka Chopra and her performances, and the extremely melodious music make the movie deserve more.All in all, go for it if you are in the mood for a sweet movie, with an incredible Piggy Chopps and great music.P.S. I do miss a sequence in which Yogesh meets all the girls and explains them why he didn't choose that particular girl.Thumbs up for sure :)

Wrong movie for Harman to act in. He probably got so excited working with Ashutosh who made so many landmark films. The movie is long and is sort of play like, where a guy chooses girls based on zodiac signs. Much of old, and even today many people use this kundli method of marriage. Just city people don't get. But what India's traditional and best way of marriage is showcased in the movie. It's showing someone who is educated, same time modern but has kept his traditional and values of his family. Lot of people in present time are lost in the modern world but this Yogesh the lead in the film is modern and wants to have love marriage but agrees to chose girls based on zodiac sign b/c with signs he knows he can meet 12 different girls in less time. He sees his first girl, and that image stays with him in his mind, in some ways an image in his mind before was unclear after meeting the first girl he carries on that image which gives him prospect to think his dream girl looks that way, so he see each girl the same onwards. Priyanka is sexy, charming but I think even having the title, she isn't that much pretty. I love her work in some of her movies but she isn't pretty or beautiful. She doesn't have looks of a heroine. In comparison with so much beautiful heroines of industry like Sridevi, Madhuri Dixit, Mumtaz, Madhubala, and Meena Kumari, Waheeda Rehman, she is no way near to their beauty even their acting skills but she can act for sure but in this movie she doesn't really have anything to act. She is showed in 12 different ways, by changing her looks. Not even one look is pretty. The actress only posses smartness, sexy body and acting skills. She isn't pretty at all. Even Bipasha beats her in looks area, much duskier, black beauty Bipasha looks better than Priyanka. Movie is good in ways of portraying the traditional way of marriage in Indian culture. The movie has tooooooo many songs which lengthen the movie. Harman just chose to work with an excellent director and in his excitement he probably forgot to look at the script. Even after giving hit of Lagaan he gave Swades, so after Jodha Akbar he was on his way to give a flop. There is a pattern in Ashu's movie. His direction is poor. The movie is good if you have big time to watch it & want to know the traditions of Gujrati families marriages. Such a talented actor but is overshadowed by 12 characters and he lost in what to chose in the movie and who to chose. After watching Victory, this movie is a let down on Harman Baweja b/c he ran for powerful director not for the good story. Watch it for Priyanka's experimental looks and for old rituals' sake. Not for Harman b/c he is a lead but his ex had more in the film than him.

There was lot of concern if this film would succeed because of an unknown actor. The actor is not Hrithik Roshan, but he is well co-ordinated for a debut actor and his acting is mediocre. He is the type of an actor who grows on you as the film unfolds but not strong enough to sustain without a versatile actress like Priyanka Chopra.The funniest was the Anjali character (where she deliberately sticks her upper lip)with a lisping speech,cacophony laugh, the clumsy walk and poor etiquette. The twelve characters, even though have varying backgrounds the acting is of three distinctions-dumb,demure and crazy. There is certain suspense as to the next Raashee carnation would be-same token there is a nonchalant expectation too. The scene where they stare at each other on the balcony is poignant probably the best part. The story is original and unique but the spying part of the story drags the film down to a B-movie-not inline for someone like Gowariker. stature. The movie could have been tight-suffers from poor editing and long drawn out dances. Music is not the calibre of A.R. Rahman-his absence has definitely made a dent in the film. Overhaul this is a good comedy which bashes the NRI and at the same token brings up lot of social injustices.

Evry1 criticizes the length of the director's movie, but i have to give him credit fr backing up this vision. With WYR?, the length is not the issue, but weakly adapting this story and the cast not delivering their roles to the extent of being repetitive nd boring. Since a t.v adaptation stretched week after week w.episodes giving ample amount of time for interactions between yogesh patel and 12 women, the length was not the question of why movie doesn't works. Its romantic nd funny w.o having major suspense, the excitement factor works due to kind of women yogesh meets(played by 12 actresses not 1). You don't have to know too much about zodiac signs ,nd whole story is self explanatory why yogesh goes about choosing a girl based on rashees. However, the excitement factor is lost in the '09 movie and leaves little room for a genuine interaction, rather presenting caricatures of character study. Sure, the idea of choosing is not based on looks(that's why 1 actress)but on inner qualities,but movie did focus on looks,style,nd costumes nd it came out to be caricatures. The focus was more on how 1 actress can portray 12 roles to get an award, rather than focusing on interesting stories w.different women. This cud have justified movie's length nd add excitement to make it fun and difficult for the guy.
