<span class=normal>Fashion<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Strengths:<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- The films subject. A film cant promise to be more glamorous than this. <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Director Madhur Bhandarkar. He has never failed (Aan - Men At Work was hardly his film) and there is no reason why he shouldnt shock yet again. <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- The entire expose theme! Howsoever the makers may want to state that Fashion doesnt take the expose route, this is what audience expects from Fashion. <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Female power. Priyanka Chopra and Kangna have made a name for themselves already while by the look of things, Mugdha Godse should be the welcome addition to the club. <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Good music. Frankly, for the first time, Madhur Bhandarkar has got it right. And he must thank Salim-Sulaiman for that!<BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Publicity, controversy, sensationalism - Since the time Fashion went on floors (around a year back), it has done well in all the three departments. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Weaknesses:<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Strength of Fashion is its weakness. Audience expects a fair amount of expose and sensationalism in the film. If it isnt shocking enough, audience may be left disappointed. <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Identification with the theme. While there is no doubt about urban audience lapping up the film, the same is doubtful for smaller centers. <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Priyanka Chopra has delivered six back to back flops before Fashion. While it is just one film that is capable of reversing the trend, the fact is that she is going through a horrible patch.<BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>- Clash with Golmaal Returns, which is bound to invade into mass territory. </span>
