I was desperately waiting for this film, as was eager to see Priyanka playing 12 different roles and most importantly, it being a film by Asutosh Gowariker.
So it was a first day, first show @ Globus. The film had an amazing start of Priyanka displaying the Twelve Zodiac signs.The film became interesting with each different character of Priyanka, and in no way they were similar.Harman suited the character well, no wonder he was chosen by the Artistic vision of Ashutosh. Though the film is about 3 hours and 2o mins, it doesn't seem so long.Whats your Rashee? keeps you engaged throughout the film with its characters, and many but beautiful short songs. There is nothing superstitious about the film, infact it is just the mindset of the actor and people. Ashutosh as always has touched social issues in his movies and kept his mark here too. Where the film deals with certain issues like dowry and Child marriage. The characters that i loved the most were Hansa- the cancerian, a graduate in English Literature, who still isn't been able to cope up with her past, since been ditched by her neighbour whom she loved the most.
And Pooja- truly a Virgo like me, who are Romantic, Career oriented yet live all their life listening to their heart. Emotions and relations are her priority.
Though the film did not do well, nor Indian critics appreciated it, I guess it was just a propaganda to put the film down. Infact, it was the closing film for 'Toronto film Festival' and got a standing Applause.
