What was so good about Priyanka's role that she got a national award for it? Madhur might be a good director, but I feel he doesn't deserve all the recognition he gets, purely because he puts on the mask of trying to do something different, when in reality its the same thing just presented or advertised as different or intelligent!!
but such thing DO happen in the industry, the casting couch?? there have been plenty of sting operations to prove it.
I think Priyanka is overrated as an actress but she was good in Fashion, you could see growth in her character and she potrayed it very convincingly. As for Kangana being the star, hmm, she was good but nothing i havent seen her do before. She was screaming and saying bas***d for the most part which i was very disappointed about, her talent wasnt utilized properly. But she was DEF better than priyanka while walking the ramp, she was every bit convincing as the super model.
i have very high regards for kareena the actress, i have no doubt in her abilities to pull off a variety of roles, but this is one character i dont see her doing, Or doing it as good as priyanka did.
