Every May, the who's who of the entertainment world, arrive at Cannes, France for one of the world’s biggest film festivals. Apart from showcasing noteworthy cinematic work from across the globe, the film festival is also renowned for its fashion-forward nature.
Celebrities make sure that they put their most fashionable foot forward while at Cannes. Deepika Padukone, who made her second appearance at the film festival this year, chose a ravishing Ashi Studio ensemble for her red carpet appearance.
While there’s no denying that the Bollywood mega star looked absolutely stunning, her rather ~elaborate~ outfit became a meme goldmine in the twitterverse.
While Deepika’s outfit was the one that created the most buzz, Cannes this year witnessed several Bollywood celebrities at their glamorous best.
Like every year, the Indian Queen of Cannes, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, looked gorgeous. For her first appearance, the actress channeled her inner butterfly in a gorgeous Michael Cinco gown, and left the world stunned.
For her second appearance, Rai wore a Rami Kadi Couture gown and looked like a real-life fairy.
The cutest part of her Cannes visit however, were her adorable moments with daughter Aaradhya.
Making their Cannes debut this year, actress Huma Qureshi and Kangana Ranaut also sizzled at the red carpeted.
Kangana Ranaut looked absolutely beautiful in her black Sabyasachi saree.
And her dazzinling Nedret Taviroglu jumpsuit
The Cannes Film Festival is often regarded as the world’s biggest and most prestigious film festival. With an extremely selective screening process, only very few movies from across the world are chose to be showcased at the glitzy setting. Amongst the movies screened, few go on to receive the prestigious award ‘Palme d'Or’ which translates to ‘golden palm’. Richa Chadda and Vicky Kaushal’s Masaan won the international critics’ choice award, the Prix de l'Avenir, at the festival in 2015.
