Popular television actor Hina Khan made another appearance on the red carpet at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival. The actor whore a shimmering silver gown with a thigh-high slit designed by Alin Le’ Kal an Australian fashion house.
Hina Khan is at the Cannes festival to publicise her upcoming debut film Lines. On Monday, Hina launched the poster of her film at Cannes, which is set in the backdrop of the Kargil War. The actor plays Nazia in the film and she took to Instagram to talk more about her character.
“Emotions don’t change because of the borders in between, the life and plight of Nazia is a simple portrayal of any girl who faces the magnitude of ordinary challenges in a not so ordinary story. #Lines is my debut in films. I hope you all love it as much we loved it.This is the first look launched at Cannes and an official poster which depicts more than a poster can!” Hina wrote.
Earlier when Hina made her debut on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival, the editor of a popular Bollywood magazine put a post on Instagram apparently ridiculing the actor with the question, “Cannes has suddenly become Chandivali studios kya?”. Several celebrities and actors including Salman Khan came to Hina’s support after the remark was posted. The editor later apologised and deleted his comment.
Hina had also put up a post after the editor’s Insta post went viral online and signed it off as a “proud outsider from my Chandiwali studios”.
The editor had apologised to Hina for his remarks by posting a message online that said: “My apologies to Hina Khan. My Instaa caption has been grossly misconstrued. I would never ever belittle an artiste,” he wrote. He further said that his remark was “meant to suggest that Cannes has become Bollywood centric.” And that as a reporter who spent a lot of time in places like Chandivali studios in the beginning of his career, he would never look down at it.
Hina gracefully accepted his apology and moved on.
