Why is it still Monday?! The 2022 Cannes Film Festival starts tomorrow and we really can’t wait to see all that our desi divas will bring to the red carpet. The fact that India is the official Country of Honour is further fuelling our excitement! ’Coz that only means more Indian representation and a plethora of bookmark-worthy looks from our fave stars.
As you can tell, we are running out of patience and to keep ourselves distracted, here’s looking at all the Indian divas who will grace the 2022 Cannes red carpet. Scroll ahead for the interesting line up:
Deepika Padukone
Deepika Padukone is serving as a jury member this year and the actress will walk the red carpet every single day from May 17th to 28th. A few days ago she was also announced as the new Louis Vuitton House Ambassador and we’re sure that her team is working extra hard to serve some sharp looks. We are anticipating lots of stately silhouettes, solid silk gowns, and defined shoulders.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
A regular at the festival since 2002, Aishwarya has given us some stellar fashion moments at Cannes. Last time, she was seen on the red carpet along with daughter Aaradhya and we are wondering if she will accompany her mom this year as well. That said, Aishwarya is known for her experimental beauty looks and we can’t wait to see what she has in store this year.
Hina Khan
Hina Khan is a red caret wonder that we can not get enough of. She broke the internet with her 2019 Cannes debut and we are expecting a similar feat this year too. Just last night, Hina was spotted turning heads at the UK Asian Film Festival. At the same time, she gave us a teaser of high octane Glamm that she’ll bring to Cannes in her pristine Tarun Tahiliani outfit. Here’s hoping that she flaunts some more Indian couture at the festival.
Aditi Rao Hydari
Aditi Rao Hydari is making her Cannes Film Festival debut this year and we expect to see her evergreen, fail-proof style on the red carpet. Wouldn’t it be cool if she takes a leaf out of Kaatru Veliyidai and brings the Mani Ratnam muse to Cannes?!
Pooja Hegde
Again a Cannes debutante, Pooja will be attending the film festival on May 17th and 18th. The actress is known for her effortless and breezy style and we’re excited to see how it translates on the red carpet.
Tamannaah Bhatia
Last night, Tamannaah was clicked at the Mumbai airport while leaving for the French Rivera. Sporting an edgy brown pantsuit with appliqué details and a relaxed silhouette, we wonder if it was a feeler of what is to follow. Tamannaah often makes headlines for her neat, impactful looks and we’re looking forward to what she brings to the red carpet.
Helly Shah
The Swaragini actress is trending right now thanks to her Cannes debut, where she will also be launching the poster of her first Bollywood film. Helly will also be walking the red carpet for a beauty brand and we’re eagerly waiting to see if she ends up being the surprise package just like Hina Khan in 2019.
Nayanthara
Maybe this is the year Kanchipuram weaves have their moment on the Cannes red carpet. We are investing high hopes in Nayanthara. After all, won’t it be a welcome change to see an Indian diva eschew Western couture for a rich silk drape?
Clearly, Indian celebs are all set to take over Cannes 2022 and we’ll be here to give you all the updates!
