Meghna
Mathur
(Priyanka
Chopra)
A
small
town
girl
whose
strength,
determination,
and
feisty
spirit
causes
her
to
journey
far
from
home.
Meghna
Mathur
is
an
elusive
combination
of
beauty
and
intelligence.
She
aspires
to
be
a
part
of
the
fashion
world.
She
knows
that
she
has
what
it
takes
to
become
a
supermodel
and
will
pursue
it
to
the
ends
of
the
earth.
She
also
has
the
added
advantage
of
in-built
self
esteem
and
a
sense
of
morality
and
will
not
compromise
on
her
dignity.
But
how
can
that
attitude
balance
with
her
driving
ambition
to
get
to
the
top?
Meghna
will
fall
prey
to
the
trappings
of
fame.
Will
she
rise
from
the
fall?
Shonali
(Kangana
Ranaut)
Shonali
Gujral
is
the
reigning
model
on
the
runway
and
an
icon
for
Meghna
to
aspire
to.
However,
Shonali
is
also
a
victim
of
the
choices
she
has
made.
She
bears
the
consequences
of
a
steep
rise
to
fame
and
fortune
without
a
resolute
backbone
when
the
weight
got
unbearable.
Shonali
is
the
poster
child
for
glamour
and
for
self-destruction.
Famous,
envied,
lost
and
confused
she
is
a
prisoner
in
a
world,
which
will
be
her
ultimate
downfall.
Janet
(Mugdha
Godse)
Janet
is
the
tough
talking
girl
with
a
heart
of
gold,
who
becomes
Meghna's
best
friend.
A
model
who
may
not
have
reached
the
heights
of
Shonali
and
yet
remains
more
carefree
as
she
lives
life
by
her
own
terms
with
no
demons
or
regrets.
Anything
goes
with
Janet.
She
seems
like
she
has
made
a
deal
with
life
-
'You
keep
me
alive
and
I'll
walk
about
with
a
smile
on
my
face.'
But
Janet
has
something
the
others
who
survive
like
her
don't:
She
has
a
heart.
She
values
the
importance
of
a
family.
And
she
knows
that
you
can
find
love
in
the
strangest
places.

number

Fashion, this tells the story of one small town girl with a dream and the determination to make it a reality. Meghna Mathur knew that she was meant to be famous. Ever ambitious and bright with stars in her eyes, even as a girl with a conservative background, she dared to dream of bright lights and the big city. The world of fashion - the clothes, the colors, the make-up, all of these form a part of the fascinating world that Meghna has longed to be a part of. She reaches the peak of her success and rises to walk the ramps for leading designers across India. The fashion world lies at her feet - the parties, the brand endorsements, the photographers, the models, the romance and of course - the shows, the shows, the shows!
However, karma catches up with Meghna as she slowly starts to pay the price for her fame and her journey to the top. Her attempt at a comeback was going to be a near impossibility but she was never a woman to turn away from a challenge. "Fashion" explores the world of style through the emotional personal journey of the key people that make the industry, the dream-weavers of that elaborate world of glamour: the models, designers, photographers, businessmen, agencies etc.
In the world of image - makers - is it possible to conquer it and remain true to yourself?
