After the film being declared a colossal failure & almost every review pulling'

'I bumped into an old colleague last night. She had quit work to pursue a hobby, which (from the looks of it) had done her good!

'I was having an argument with a colleague who stated as a matter of fact , that no-one buys stuff just because their favorite stars endorse it. Point taken! And I know majority would nod their heads in agreement. Although studies would prove otherwise, that incase of the most popular (say top3-5), sales have shown an accelerated growth after a brand has roped in any of the top stars. Celebrity'
