WOW! Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s Devdas to be screened in Cannes once again

Friday, 19 May 2017 07:00

Fifteen years ago, we saw the former beauty queen and award winning actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan walking the red carpet of the prestigious Cannes Film Festival for the first time during the premiere of her film Devdas.

Since then there has been no stopping the actress, who has been a part of the festival at the French Riviera almost every year. And now, reviving her first appearance, Devdas will be a part of the festival in 2017.

Despite many film commitments, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has rarely missed her appearance at Cannes. The actress walks the red carpet on behalf of the cosmetics major L’Oréal Paris and this time around she will be attending again on May 19 and 20.

Speaking about her first experience at Cannes, Aishwarya stated that it was definitely overwhelming and the response she got for the film is something that she will cherish all her life.

The screening will be held at the Martinez beach for public screening. The Outdoor Cinema of Cannes Film Festival will also feature films that are selected as well as introduced by six ambassadors of the cosmetic brand.
