Bollywood comes calling at Cannes
The 62nd Cannes Film Festival got a taste of Bollywood glamour as Aishwarya Rai, a regular at Cannes for the past seven years, walked the red carpet for the premiere of "Up," the latest offering from Pixar. The festival opened May 13 and will continue until May 24.
The 35-year-old Rai, who was accompanied by husband Abhishek Bachchan, stood out amongst the bevy of international beauties in her strapless white Roberto Cavalli gown that had a ruched bodice studded with crystals and accentuated her stunning figure. Red peeptoe heels, a Swarovski clutch, pearl drop earrings and chunky rings completed the ensemble. A stylized hair-do added a touch of glamour.
Actress Sharmila Tagore, dressed in a pale yellow printed saree, was also at the event.

Cannes has been memorable experience ... never been about wardrobe
While Aishwarya Rai Bachchan understands the constant need for people to check out her clothes and accessories at important events, what the star actor cannot fathom is why her clothes at the Cannes Film Festival become more important than what she does.
"I don't even want to think about what people thought of my clothes earlier and what they think of it now. To me how I conduct myself at Cannes and how people react to me are far more important than what I wear," Rai Bachchan, who has been attending the prestigious film fest since 2002, told IANS.
"Cannes has always been a marvellous and memorable experience. This time was no different. It's never about the wardrobe for me. I don't focus on that at all," added the actress who went there for the first time with ‘Devdas'.
She reminisces about each year she has attended the Cannes fest, saying, "That was the year of 'Devdas'. That experience remains embedded in my mind. It wasn't just about how much they liked me in a sari or walking the red carpet. It was more memorable for the standing ovation that we got after the screening of 'Devdas'. What an ovation! It was a very special experience.
