After two debacles at the box office,is What’s Your Raashee ? a must-win situation for you?
Every movie is a must-win situation for me. Love Story 2050 was my debut and hence there was a lot of pressure to deliver,Victory was tough physically because of all the physical training and What’s Your Raashee? has tested my potential as an actor. I play the character of Yogesh Patel who has to react to various girls and situations.

Are you worried you could be written off if this movie fails?
Why are you scaring me? What I believe is,no matter what people write about you,they cannot change your destiny.

Rumours of your break-up with co-star Priyanka Chopra did the rounds during the film’s shoot. Did this create any awkwardness between you two?
On the contrary,we had loads of fun working together and our chemistry on screen has been very good. We have been friends long enough and still are. I cringe when my mum picks up the newspaper when there is some untrue story written about me.

With arranged marriages a rarity and social networking sites playing a major role,do you think the movie will strike a chord with the urban audience?
No matter how advanced you get,there is always the need to get married. No matter where you come from,there will come a point in your life when your family will ask you to settle down.

Before this film,did you believe in zodiac signs?
Till I reached Class 10,I kept doing compatibility quizzes. I’m a Scorpio and I tried finding the most compatible zodiacs.

Did this movie help you fulfill your childhood fantasy?
Having an arranged marriage is no childhood fantasy. But meeting 12 girls definitely is. And when they all look like Priyanka Chopra,what more could you ask for?
