Ashutosh Gowarikar has been in the news for everything other than his latest release What’s your Rashee? The director is known for his outbursts at public events, the most recent being the one in which he told his leading lady Priyanka Chopra that she didn’t deserve the Best Actress Award. Priyanka was very upset but it seems that the cold war has ended, she said, “I’m very happy to have worked with Ashu Sir, a director of such calibre. I haven’t been in this biz for that long but I’m thankful that I have had the opportunity to work with him.” Ashutosh Gowarikar is hoping that his latest flick that also stars forgotten actor Harman Baweja will have the same fate as his last blockbuster Jodhaa Akbar. “This is the first time I’ve ventured into the romantic comedy genre.

Incidentally, it was Gowarikar who portrayed the ancient enlightened saint in Shyam Benegal’s popular TV series, Discovery of India. One more thing: Benegal too wants to make a film on Buddha, but with Hrithik Roshan in the lead.
