Finally Madhur Bhandarkar’s much-awaited ‘Fashion’

with his latest offering, he aptly fits well with the
viewers’ expectations. ‘Fashion’ is laced with all the
ingredients to make a it a bumper Diwali blockbuster. The
film has something that gets the audiences glued to their
seats and grips them when they witness the tragic fate of
the three lead characters in the film. Their descent into
hell is gradual, slow, poetic, heart rending… And you sit
aghast, trying to evade the agony revealed in the starkly
realistic film. Get ready to watch the hidden facts happened
in the world of fashion industry, where backstage dramas
take place, wardrobe malfunctions and casting couch happen.
Madhur brings this all and more for you. And surely this all
entertains you and even shocks you to a greater extent.
‘Fashion; works big due to the sagas, which you read in the
newspapers and watch on the TV as an outsider and Madhur
Bhandarker brings all on the big screen. |

Madhur Bhandarker, the master director of realistic
fares, always makes the movies which are so close to
reality. Above all, he weaves the story so
brilliantly on screen that you love to stay with and
want to see the film time and again. The master
filmmaker does mammoth research on the subject, he
plans to make a film on and that research depicts in
his films. ‘Fashion’ has three stories woven into
one.

First story begins with Meghna (Priyanka Chopra) and
this saga shows the loss of innocence. Meghna appears doomed
the moment she steps into the world of ‘Fashion’. It’s the
story of the rise of an unknown small-town girl into a
supermodel and the harrowing price she pays to remain at the
top.
Second story is of Shonali (Kangana Ranaut). It depicts the
fall of a supermodel to dust. The sequences between Priyanka
and Kangana are the highlights of this tragic tale. Some
scenes are wonderful such as when the ramp queen Kangana
confronts and warns Priyanka in a restaurant.
Third story reveals about Janet (Mughda Godse). She portrays
the life of an ambitious model who does not achieve success,
but opts for a marriage of convenience.
Madhur Bhandarkar excels in direction. He narrates the story
luminously and creatively on the celluloid. Full marks to
him. The cinematography by Mahesh Limaye is crispy. He
deserves distinction marks as he captures the fashion
industry so candidly that you love to applaud every scene.
The script is well-written and great. Madhur Bhandarkar,
Anuradha Tiwari and Ajay Monga do this creative job. The
dialogues by Niranjan Iyengar attract a lot. Nitin
Chandrakant dolls up the costumes, which are much stylish.
Salim-Sulaiman’s music is pleasant to listen. ‘Jalwa’ is the
pick of the lot. |

Amongst the characters, Priyanka Chopra and Kangana
Ranaut do commendable jobs. Priyanka’s emotions on
her face loot your hearts. She is brilliant and a
classy actress. Kangana leaves no stone unturned
with her heart-hitting performance. Mughda Godse is
truly the wonderful discovery of this year. With a
perfect sexy figure, she will soon be a top notch
Bollywood actress since she knows the art of acting.
Rest of the cast too stands tall. Kitu Gidwani,
Samir Soni, Raj Babbar and |
|
 |
|
Harsh Chaya in a role of gay designer impress the
most.
On the whole, Fashion is a classy venture with innovative
subject, brilliant performances and superb direction. Don’t
miss it at all…! |
