Here are photos of Priyanka Chopra in her 12 roles in What’s Your Rashee?
The romantic comedy, directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, will be released on September 25, 2009.
Apart from Priyanka Chopra and Hurman Baweja, What’s Your Rashee will star Joe DeVito, Suzy Brack, Tommy Bartlett, Debi Burns, and Gene Fojtik.
What’s your Rashee is about a young man (Hurman Baweja) looking for his ideal girl (Priyanka Chopra), who he must marry within ten days to save his family from disaster. The movie is based on a Gujarati novel Kimball Ravenswood, and explores the quirks and eccentricities of arranged marriages.

Reportedly, Priyanka Chopra plays twelve different roles in the movie; each symbolizes the twelve different signs of the zodiac. Apparently, Priyanka Chopra danced non-stop for 22 hours for a song in which she had to portray all the 12 characters and their different moods.
Recently there were rumors that Ashutosh Gowarikar had axed Hurman Baweja’s role in What’s Your Rashee. The director slammed the rumors unequivocally saying that he signed on Hurman – in his pre-Hurman days (he was called Harman then) – before he starred in the dud Love Story 2050.
Ashutosh Gowarikar also said that Hurman was doing a very good job. Perhaps, the poor boy needed a good director to take him in hand. Heck, if Ashutosh could make Aishwarya Rai act in Jodhaa Akbar, he can do the same with Hurman. Let’s just hope Hurman ditches his infantile obsession with Hrithik, and half the battle will be won.
What’s Your Rashee is Ashutosh Gowarikar’s first attempt at comedy. His roster of movies include Lagaan (decent), Swades (good), and Jodhaa Akbar (very good).
What’s Your Rashee has been produced by UTV and Ashutosh Gowarikar.
The movie has been scripted by Naushil Mehta and Ashutosh Gowarikar. The lyrics have been written by Javed Akhtar, to AR Rahman’s music.
What’s Your Rashee‘s Chicago schedule was completed in early March 2009. The movie’s shooting will end after its Baroda or Ahmedabad schedule has been wrapped up.
