You can't believe that this movie came from a director who was rising the standard of Indian Cinema with every movie that he made. Lagaan was right on top...Swades got even better...Jodhaa Akbar was epic! Now, Gowariker is probably back to his pre-Lagaan days with this movie that bores u to the core. The major errors in the movie are - 1. Casting Harman Baweja. He is a ridiculous actor, can't even act like he is flirting (don't know how he dated Priyanka Chopra). And his acting is almost always annoying and unacceptable.
2. All the 12 roles played by Priyanka Chopra had very less screen time and it was definitely not enough for the audience to absorb. So every time Harman meets a girl of a Raashee, you forget the name and character of the girl of the previous Raashee. In the climax, when Harman says Chandrika or Hansaa, you would keep scratching your head to figure out which girl it is and what her raashee is.
3. Music. I am very very sure that the music made a lot of difference, negatively for this movie though. Ashutosh should have just waited for Rahman to get back after Slumdog Millionaire. This new comer is not bad but Rahman could have at least made the movie look a little better. More often than not, Rahman's music covers up poor acting display or poor storyline(for eg- u don't really find a scene romantic because of the acting. Rahman's bgm can make u feel romance in the scene)
4. Songs - Too many songs. a song each for each raashee...ashutosh should have done away with the songs and given more screen time for each of the 12 characters of Priyanka Chopra.
To put in short, you won't believe even in your funniest dreams that this movie was made by the director of Lagaan, Swades and Jodhaa Akbar.
