Desk Report, May 17, 2024: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made a striking entrance at the Cannes International Film Festival, captivating attendees and fans alike with her bold fashion choice. The acclaimed actress attended the premiere of “Megalopolis” at the 77th edition of the prestigious festival, donning an avant-garde black and gold butterfly-inspired dress designed by Falguni Shane Peacock. This ensemble marked her first red carpet appearance since arriving at the French Riviera.
Rai Bachchan’s sartorial choice combined elegance with sophistication, perfectly complementing the glamour of the Cannes red carpet. She posed gracefully for photographers, exuding poise and charm, and waved to the crowd, which eagerly welcomed her appearance.
Her arrival at Cannes on May 16 was met with warm hospitality. She was accompanied by her daughter, Aaradhya, and the duo received a gracious welcome, complete with bouquets. A particularly touching moment occurred when the host embraced Aaradhya, recognizing her from previous visits. Rai Bachchan expressed her gratitude for the warm reception, acknowledging the host’s gesture with appreciation.

Her commitment to attending the festival despite her injury demonstrates her dedication to her international engagements.
This year marks Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s 21st appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, a journey that began in 2002. That same year, she garnered significant acclaim for her role as Paro in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s “Devdas,” a film that also starred Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit.
Joining Rai Bachchan at Cannes are fellow Indian actors Sobhita Dhulipala and Kiara Advani, both of whom were spotted at the airport and are anticipated to make their festival debuts soon.
