The 71st Cannes Film Festival has been ruling the social media sites. The Indian actresses at the mega show namely Kangana Ranaut, Deepika Padukone, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor were mainly in the news because of their outfits. The film festival has become more of a fashion festival over the years. Like it or not, the celebs have to live up to this trend whatsoever. Cannes has also been a favourite place for all the fashion police out there. But does this affect them? Yes and No. The former Miss World, Aishwarya, tells her take on this constant fashion policing that happens at the prestigious event at French Riviera.
Talking to DNA, the blue-eyed beauty said, “That’s a part of being on a public platform. If you’re talking about the comments — whether it’s about the immense praise or critiquing — that’s just part of being a celebrity. That’s fine because it goes with the turf. I’m very easy with it. I don’t diss it or disrespect it. Experience is the best teacher, after all.”
She also spilled some beans on her next film ‘Fanne Khan’ saying, “I’m doing Fanne Khan because I like the larger idea of the film. There’s a girl who looks up to this pop star, which is played by me. But sometimes, when we idolise someone, we forget that they, too, have a real side to that person. We shouldn’t judge people on what actually are frivolous ideas. It’s important for me as a star to come out and speak about such issues in today’s day and time.” As usual, the global star has spoken her mind crisp and that’s what makes her the queen of Cannes.
