Aishwarya Rai Bachchan graced the red carpet of the 77th Cannes Film Festival on Thursday, May 16, with her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan by her side. The former Miss World attended the prestigious event despite having a cast on her right arm. Aaradhya, displaying commendable maturity and care, assisted her mother throughout the evening, ensuring her comfort and safety.
Aishwarya, who has been a regular at Cannes since 2002, dazzled in a black and white gown with a long train designed by Falguni Shane Peacock. Her daughter, Aaradhya, complemented her in a matching black ensemble. The pair attracted considerable attention and praise on social media, with numerous videos showing Aaradhya holding her mother’s hand and guiding her carefully down the hotel stairs. One social media user commented, “My queen fulfilling mommy duties even at work, not to mention Aaradhya’s equal support to her mother. The upbringing truly shines through.”
This heartwarming mother-daughter moment was not the only highlight of the festival. On the third day of Cannes 2024, actor Urvashi Rautela turned heads with her striking fashion choices. Urvashi made a bold statement in a bodycon gown adorned with shimmering red embellishments. Designed by Tunisian designer Souhir El Gabsi, the outfit featured dramatic, puffed-up sleeves that added to its allure. She attended the premiere of Francis Ford Coppola’s film ‘Megalopolis’ and shared stunning pictures of her look on Instagram.
Urvashi’s red gown was not her first standout moment at Cannes this year. She had already captivated audiences on the opening day with a hot pink ruffled gown that was equally eye-catching. On Day 3, her nude-colored gown with red accents solidified her status as a fashion icon. Urvashi also took time to interact with her fans, blowing kisses and showing heart signs, as captured in a video posted by Brut India.
The 77th Cannes Film Festival, which commenced on Tuesday, May 14, has been a showcase of glamour and talent. Among the notable attendees was Hollywood legend Meryl Streep, who received the esteemed Honorary Palme d’Or in recognition of her illustrious career. This year’s festival continues to celebrate cinematic excellence and the dazzling presence of stars from around the world.
Aishwarya Rai’s presence at Cannes, despite her injury, and her daughter Aaradhya’s unwavering support, have been lauded as a testament to their strong bond. This, coupled with Urvashi Rautela’s stunning fashion moments, has made Cannes 2024 a memorable event for Indian cinema and fashion aficionados. As the festival progresses, fans and followers eagerly anticipate more spectacular appearances and heartfelt moments. The Cannes Film Festival remains a significant platform for showcasing not only the best in cinema but also the endearing personal stories of the stars who grace its red carpet.
