Aishwarya Rai Bachchan once again proved her status as a global icon when she dazzled the world at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.
As per her annual tradition, the Bollywood star’s presence seemed to complete the French Riviera’s red carpet.
For her first appearance this year, Aishwarya chose an ivory saree designed by Manish Malhotra, complete with her signature classic center-parted hairstyle.
However, the main focus was on the bright red sindoor on her forehead, a symbol of marriage that instantly silenced all rumors about a separation from her husband, Abhishek Bachchan.

The following night, Aishwarya appeared bolder and more modern in a custom Gaurav Gupta outfit, a black gown adorned with intricate hand-embroidered micro-glass crystals that sparkled under Cannes’ lights.
Adding a unique touch, she wore a Banarasi brocade cape featuring Sanskrit shloka carvings from the Bhagavad Gita, bringing a proud nod to cultural heritage.
Her hair was swept to the side, giving a fresh vibe to her look, while vibrant red lipstick added a dramatic, captivating element.
