So I have to admit the premise for this one sounded interesting, but I really only watched because Disney Channel Friend struck again. Sadly for this one, I didn't like it. Actually I might have actually hated it. Hate is a strong word and I probably use is more often than I actually need to, but I really didn't like this one. It had potential, but I think it was handled poorly.
Good parts about it.... Priyanka Chopra. Props to this girl, she pulls off playing 12 different characters representing all 12 of the zodiac signs. She does it well and I am very impressed with her. Being honest, I already thought she was pretty good in Pyaar Impossible (and later she will impress me again in Barfi!), but she really was the only thing that made this movie tolerable for me.
What really messed it up was the writing I think. They are trying to leave you in the dark for the whole movie about who he will end up with. He has to get married by the 20th in order to collect his inheritance, and also to keep from being killed by gangsters, so he goes on a bunch of marriage dates with a girl from each astrological sign so that he can find someone to marry in time. Ok, that sounds interesting enough, but then it is executed poorly.
Really there wasn't enough set up for any of the girls to make it a love story, but they tried really hard to still throw in a love story so he can marry the one he loves... which is just not really possible, but oh well. I guess it wasn't terrible. Disney Channel Friend liked it. I really did not. Plus that dude was not super attractive so... nope that didn't save it either. Oh well. Priyanka was awesome, so watch other films with her in it.
A song from it:
Chehre Jo Dekhe Hain
