What's Your Raashee? is a 2009 Indian romantic comedy film directed by Ashutosh Gowariker and starring Harman Baweja and Priyanka Chopra Jonas in the lead roles. The film is based on the 2005 Gujarati novel Kimball Ravenswood by Madhu Rye and was shot extensively in Mumbai, India. The film was released on September 25, 2009, and received mixed reviews from the critics.

The story of the film revolves around Yogesh Patel (Harman Baweja), a young man from a middle-class family who lives in Mumbai. Yogesh is in search of a perfect life partner and decides to meet twelve girls, each belonging to a zodiac raashee (sign), in order to find his perfect match. He has to take a decision within ten days as his family wants him to get engaged soon. He meets one girl every day and faces several challenges and obstacles while trying to win her over. Priyanka Chopra plays the role of all twelve girls, each with a distinct personality, style, and behavior.

As Yogesh meets each girl, he learns about their likes, dislikes, and aspirations, and tries to impress them with his wit and charm. However, things do not go as planned for Yogesh as he realizes that each girl has her own set of expectations and demands. Some girls are simple and easy to impress, while others are complex and require special attention. Yogesh gets entangled in a web of lies and has to keep up with the different personalities he has created for himself to win over each girl.

Through his interactions with the twelve girls, Yogesh learns about the diversity and complexity of human relationships and the importance of honesty and sincerity in any relationship. He also discovers the true meaning of love and finds his perfect match in the end.

The film is a light-hearted romantic comedy with a social message about the importance of understanding and accepting people from different cultural backgrounds. The film's music, composed by Sohail Sen, received critical acclaim and was one of the film's highlights. The film's cinematography, by Piyush Shah, captures the beauty and diversity of Mumbai and its people.

Harman Baweja, who was making his second film after his debut film Love Story 2050, struggled to make an impact in the film. However, Priyanka Chopra's performance received widespread praise for her portrayal of twelve distinct characters with ease and grace. Anjan Srivastav, who plays Yogesh's grandfather, also delivers a solid performance with his witty one-liners and comical timing.

Despite its flaws, What's Your Raashee? is an entertaining and enjoyable film that offers a unique take on the romantic comedy genre. It shows the different sides of love and relationships and offers a message of hope and optimism.
