Review:
What’s Your Raashee? is the story of Yogesh Patel, a young man who in his heart has always wanted a love marriage. Till suddenly he is told that he must find his dream girl within ten days to save his family from utter ruin. Yogesh now has to finalise from 12 brides-to-be, essayed by Priyanka Chopra. Each of the brides belongs to a different sun sign. He meets the brides in a span of just 15 days and has a song sequence with each of the 12.
The basic idea of the story, to give diverse perspectives through different characters, holds appeal. But he should have opted for different actresses as he fails to justify his view that the characters share resemblances. So is the scene when two of these characters confront each other for no good reason.
The movie tries to handle various aspects of marriage that prevails in our society, right from child marriage to virginity to punar janam and so on. But episodes are shallow-sketched and carry very fragile backdrop.
