Bollywood beauty Priyanka Chopra dazzled the Toronto audience as Ashutosh Gowariker's "What's Your Rashee?" brought the curtains down on the last day of the 34th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) here.
Gowariker, Priyanka and actor Hurman Baweja were given the ceremonial red carpet reception at the city's Roy Thomson Hall where the film premiered Saturday. And festival co-director Cameron Bailey was on hand to welcome the trio.
Unlike 2001, Gowariker said, Saturday was a special day for him as it was the first time his film was being premiered at one of the world's top film festivals.
Waving to the crowd in the theatre hall, Priyanka said she was thrilled to be at the Toronto film festival for the first time. She asked the audiences to be forgiving as it was her first film premiere at a major international festival.

In the packed hall, the audience enjoyed every moment as the over three-hour-long film unfolded on the big screen. Shortlisting 165 girls who respond to their matrimonial ad to just 12 - each of one sun sign - Yogesh and his family start meeting each girl, starting with the Aries sun sign.
Twelve songs - one for each sun sign - keep the plot afloat as Priyanka changes chameleon-like from the role of one girl to the other.
"What's Your Rashee?" was the second Bollywood film to be premiered this year at the festival after "Dil Bole Hadippa", which stars Rani Mukerji and Shahid Kapoor.
But many other India-specific films were also screened at the film festival this year.
