After weeks of excitement and speculation, Alia Bhatt made a stunning first appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, instantly commanding attention as she stepped onto the red carpet with timeless elegance. The celebrated actor, known for her poise and charm, embraced old-world sophistication in a dreamy peach ensemble that shimmered under the Riviera sun.
Styled impeccably by the ever-talented Rhea Kapoor, Alia looked every inch the queen in an exquisite off-shoulder body-hugging gown by the renowned fashion house Schiaparelli. The serene dress was crafted in soft ecru Chantilly lace and delicately embellished with enamel and organza floral detailing. Adding layers of visual poetry, the outfit was completed with voluminous ivory-hued mousseline, sheer crepeline, airy organza, and frothy tulle ruffles that cascaded around the hemline like a gentle wave.
Her accessories were minimal yet impactful—classic pearl earrings and a sleek, low bun highlighted her natural beauty without overwhelming it. The ‘Raazi’ star let her effortless aura and quiet confidence shine, proving once again why she remains one of the most graceful faces in Indian cinema.
Representing L’Oréal Paris as a global ambassador, Alia attended the screening of The Mastermind at the 78th edition of the prestigious festival. Her presence on the red carpet quickly became the talk of the town, with numerous photos capturing her radiance going viral across social media platforms. One image that drew particular attention featured Alia alongside British actor Simone Ashley, sparking excitement among fans for the crossover moment.
Before her big red carpet moment, Alia teased fans with a monochrome snapshot on her Instagram Story, offering a sneak peek into her captivating Cannes look—an image that quickly caught fire online.
This year has witnessed a powerful Bollywood footprint at Cannes. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made headlines with her trademark glamour, while other notable Indian celebrities like Ishaan Khatter, Vishal Jethwa, Janhvi Kapoor, Karan Johar, Sharmila Tagore, Neeraj Ghaywan, Simi Garewal, and Urvashi Rautela also made striking appearances, each adding their own flair to the global stage.
Alia’s attendance comes amid rumors suggesting she might skip the event due to geopolitical unrest. Instead, her arrival brought a sense of unity and style to the closing chapter of this year's festival.
On the professional front, Alia was last seen in Jigra, an emotional action film directed by Vasan Bala about a sister’s fight to free her wrongly imprisoned brother. Despite critical praise for the cast, the film underperformed commercially.
Next, she will reunite with husband and Brahmastra co-star Ranbir Kapoor in Love & War, a period drama helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and also starring Vicky Kaushal.
