The first shooting schedule of Ashutosh Gowariker's forthcoming romantic comedy ‘What's Your Raashee?' commenced on Saturday 6th December 2008 in Mumbai. The entire movie will be shot in a single start-to-end schedule. The film stars Priyanka Chopra and Harman Baweja in the lead and is Ashutoh Gowariker's first romantic comedy after delivering his magnum opus Jodhaa Akbar earlier this year.
Commenting on making a romantic comedy, Ashutosh Gowariker said, “It is a genre that I have always loved, my most favorite ones being Roman Holiday, When Harry Met Sally, all of Frank Capra, amongst several others. I am also a great fan of Chupke Chupke and all the romantic comedies of Hrishikesh Mukherji and Basu Chatterji. It is a genre that I had always wanted to attempt and now I have got the opportunity to do so through WHAT'S YOUR RAASHEE?
‘What's Your Raashee?' is based on a Gujrati novel Kimball Ravenswood by Shri Madhu Rye, and is a story revolving around a young Gujarati man in pursuit of his dream girl with the catch to find her within 10 days in order to save his family from an unforeseen ordeal, which leads to an array of confusion, chaos and a hilarious joy ride.
The film is presented by UTV Motion Pictures and Ashutosh Gowariker Productions and will be jointly produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Sunita A.Gowariker. Other credits include lyrics by Javed Aktar, music by Sohail Sen, screenplay by Naushil Mehta & Ashutosh Gowariker, dialogues by Naushil Mehta, costume design by Neeta Lulla, Art direction by Nitin Desai and director of photographer is Piyush Shah.
