When a movie is based on a book, it’s hard to pep up the interest of those who’ve read the book. So, very wisely, director Ashutosh Gowariker has decided to change the climax of his movie What's Your Raashee? so that the suspense remains.

Based on a novel by Madhu Rye, the movie will now have a different ending. Now, Harman Baweja marries a different girl in the end and not the one in the novel. Though it took some persuasion, the author was convinced when Ashutosh described that a similar ending can ruin the climax of the movie as many who have read the novel will know what will happen in the end.

In fact, Madhu never imagined that Ashutosh will make one actress play all the 12 female characters in the story. But for Ashutosh, it made complete sense to havePriyanka Chopra play all the dozen characters because he wanted “all the 12 girls to be looked on with equal curiosity and interest by the audience.” And it does appear that Priyanka has succeeded to pull off all the characters.

Now, whether the changes made work in favour of the movie or not will be known on 25th September, the day the movie releases.
