Priyanka Chopra reveals she had 110 to 120 costume changes in Fashion
Priyanka Chopra recently sat down for a conversation with Vogue and recalled some highlights of her career. One of the initial milestones she discussed was shooting for Madhur Bhandarkar’s Fashion, which marked a turning point in her career.

She recalled that at that time, she had been in the film industry for just about four years and was quite nervous about taking on a female-led film. The actress said:
“Fashion. This was 2008, around that time, and this is one of my first female-led movies. I had been in movies for like 4 years or something, so I was really nervous about it. I worked on it for like 6 months.”
She also fondly recalled working with her ‘prolific actors’ Kangana Ranaut and Mugdha Godse in the film. Priyanka recalled how Kangana, who played the role of a troubled model in the film, won a prestigious award along with her for the film.
