Description: Meghna Mathur (Priyanka Chopra Jonas), an aspiring model, dreams of making it big in Mumbai as a supermodel. Despite her father’s wish for her to pursue a career in accounting, she leaves home to chase her ambition in the competitive world of fashion. In Mumbai, she reconnects with Rohit (Ashwin Mushran), an aspiring designer working under Vinay Khosla (Harsh Chhaya). Meghna faces numerous rejections during her initial days but finds support in Maanav (Arjan Bajwa), another struggling model.
At a fashion show organized by Rahul Arora (Samir Soni), Meghna encounters supermodel Shonali Gujral (Kangana Ranaut) but faces mockery from the choreographer, Christine. To fund her portfolio shoot with photographer Kartik (Rohit Roy), Meghna takes on a lingerie advertisement, which brings her into the spotlight but also causes her relatives to ask her to leave their home. She moves in with Maanav and catches the attention of Anisha Roy (Kitu Gidwani), an executive at the prestigious modeling agency Panache.
Anisha introduces Meghna to Abhijit Sarin (Arbaaz Khan), who is impressed by her determination. Meghna’s career takes off as she replaces Shonali, whose drug addiction has made her unreliable, as Panache’s top model. However, fame comes with its challenges. Meghna ends her relationship with Maanav, begins an affair with Abhijit, and loses her close friends due to her changed attitude. After becoming pregnant with Abhijit’s child, she is forced to undergo an abortion due to her contract terms.
Meanwhile, Janet (Mugdha Godse), another aspiring model, marries Rahul Arora as a cover for his sexual orientation. Shonali’s condition worsens, leading her to seek rehabilitation. Meghna’s journey highlights the highs and lows of the fashion industry, where ambition, relationships, and personal sacrifices collide.
