Recounting her experience of attending Cannes Film Festival for the first time on 2002 Aishwarya said, “We attended the festival not just as artistes but as proud representatives of Indian cinema, and showcasing a film that meant so much to us. The kind of reception we got for the movie was truly overwhelming and I will cherish it all my life.” Describing the grand reception Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film received at the film festival she said, “They made the reception so wonderful by actually creating this little ride up in a horse carriage…The three of us went up and we truly felt like we were representing us. It just felt glorious from the first step on the red carpet.”

We hope Aishwarya has an equally memorable experience at Cannes this year. Stay tuned for exclusive updates on 70th Cannes Film Festival on Bollywood Garam!
