Cannes favourite and beloved Bollywood diva, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, graced the film festival's red carpet on May 16, captivating everyone with her presence in a black and white gown by designer Falguni Shane Peacock, that featured a dramatic gold pattern. The Devdas actress' statement gold moment at Cannes left the audience stunned. She styled the ensemble with chunky gold hoops and subtle makeup. The gold flowers on the trail grabbed all the attention on the red carpet.
The former Miss World is receiving a lot of praise and respect from the netizens for her appearance at the event despite being injured. However, many are not happy with her choice of look this year.
Let's see what the netizens have to say:
Respecting her for walking with an injured hand, an X user said, "Want to learn how to be confident about yourself? Learn it from Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. I remember how she walked Cannes red carpet post pregnancy even with weight gain, and have today, she is there with a plaster in hand. Hats Off To This Woman!"
Her appearance at the French Riviera is not just about fashion but also about how she is breaking stereotypes of women's body type. The actress has served so many iconic looks at Cannes, that many are complaining about this year's style. While her look is adored by many, few are not satisfied with Aishwarya's Cannes 2024 fashion.
Not happy with her look, an X user wrote, "Come on you cannot represent India at the Cannes like this!!". Defending Aishwarya online, a user replied, "Why can't she, she is representing India even with an injury, it's a courageous move."
Another account commented, "Why can't she? That's her body type right now. After Heeramandi many people said accept your body the way it is. She is doing that unapologetically. She is looking fabulous! Daring to walk with the heavy dress with an injury with confidence! I think kudos to her."
While many praised her presence with a plastered hand at the Cannes Film Festival, fashion enthusiasts expected more from the Bollywood diva, comparing this year's look with her previous Cannes appearances.
