I watched the first hour of "What's Your Rashee?" last night on Netflix Watch Instantly. This is a 3 hour plus comedy about a young Indian guy who parents call him back from the US to get married because if he does he will get a windfall from his grandfather. This is all predicted in the beginning of the film by an astrologer. So the young guy finds a book on astrology and decides to meet a woman from each sign. It's a goofy film but India has always had fine comedic actors and they carry the film.
Would Hollywood jump on is for a remake? I couldn't imagine the story working at all in the US. The notion of the plot would seem ridiculous to US audiences as it does to Indians too but they get a kick out of it whereas US audiences would feel insulted. For the jyotishis it's mostly sun sign astrology and the "women" don't match up that well to the characteristics of the sign. The producers of the film have a disclaimer at the beginning that they don't embrace nor recommend astrology and claim no knowledge in it (though the "astrologer" is using an Eastern style chart in his software program). This in spite the fact that the Indian government just recently declared astrology a science.
