Alia Bhatt Isn't Holding Back – Makes Red Carpet History In Gucci's First-Ever Saree At Cannes Finale
New Delhi: Alia Bhatt ensured all eyes were on her during her Cannes debut, and this time, she took it up a notch with an even more iconic look. The actress gave us something we never anticipated — Gucci's first-ever saree-inspired ensemble at the festival's closing ceremony.
The nude saree was drenched in Swarovski crystals and featured the brand's signature GG monogram.

Styled by Rhea Kapoor, the no-pleat Gucci saree was paired with a matching metallic mesh blouse featuring a plunging neckline. Her makeup and accessories were minimal yet striking - a diamond necklace and studded earrings added just the right amount of sparkle. With kohl-rimmed eyes, soft waves in her hair, and a long flowing pallu, Alia delivered one of the most impressive looks at Cannes this year.
Netizens can't stop praising the actress for the variety and elegance in all her appearances, especially this one — a proud representation of Indian-inspired fashion on a global stage.
Safe to say, this was one of Alia Bhatt's best red carpet moments to date.
Earlier, Alia made waves with her cream Schiaparelli gown during her debut. The beige off-shoulder bustier gown featured soft ecru Chantilly lace, organza, enamel floral embroidery, and romantic ruffled detailing.
The Highway actress attended the premiere of The Mastermind on May 23.
For the L'Oréal party, she dazzled (literally) in a blue bejeweled gown by Armani Privé from their Spring-Summer 2025 collection, paired with minimal makeup and a dramatic matching headpiece.
Alia attended the prestigious film festival as one of the global ambassadors of L'Oréal. This was also her first major red carpet appearance as a global ambassador for Gucci — and she did full justice to both the role and the runway.

Vivek Oberoi mourns Sunjay Kapur's death and close friend Vijay Rupani's loss in Ahmedabad plane crash: ‘Devastated by the horrific news'
Sunjay Kapur, prominent Indian industrialist and ex-husband of Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor , tragically passed away on June 12 at the age of 53 in the United Kingdom. Reports confirm that Sunjay suffered a fatal heart attack while playing polo—a sport he was deeply passionate about. According to reports, the tragic incident occurred during an ongoing polo match when a bee allegedly entered Sunjay's mouth while he was riding. The insect is believed to have triggered a severe reaction, leading to a heart attack. Despite immediate medical intervention, Sunjay could not be revived. Sunjay's sudden demise has sent shockwaves through business and celebrity circles alike. He was the Chairman of Sona Comstar and an active face in India's elite social and sports communities, particularly known for his love for equestrian sports. Actor Vivek Oberoi was among those to express his sorrow on social media. "It's truly heartbreaking to hear about the untimely passing of Sunjay Kapur. Such a profound loss for everyone who knew him. My deepest condolences and strength to his family during this incredibly difficult time. May they find peace and courage to cope with this immense grief," he tweeted. In a heartbreaking coincidence, Vivek Oberoi also grieved the death of his close friend and former Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani , who was among the victims of the tragic Air India plane crash on June 12. The London-bound flight AI-171 from Ahmedabad crashed shortly after takeoff, killing over 265 people. 'Deeply saddened to hear the tragic loss of my dear friend, former Gujarat CM Vijay Rupani Ji, in the Air India plane crash. His contributions to Gujarat were immense, and his dedication to public service touched countless lives. My heart goes out to his wife and children who anticipated his return in London. His absence will be profoundly felt by me and by everyone across the country. May his soul rest in peace. Om Shanti,' Vivek shared in another emotional tweet. Vivek further expressed anguish over the crash's impact on civilians: 'Devasted by the horrific news of the Air India flight from Ahmedabad to London crashing into the BJ Medical College UG hostel mess in Meghani Nagar. This is an unimaginable tragedy. I'm praying intensely for more people to survive as rescue efforts continue and those affected are being rushed to hospitals. My deepest condolences go out to every family who has lost loved ones in this devastating incident. The pain is immense. 💔 Let's all unite in prayer for every life that can still be saved.' Kareena and Saif visit Karisma Kapoor after Sunjay's death Hours after news broke of Sunjay's untimely death, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan were seen arriving at Karisma Kapoor's Mumbai residence late Thursday night. Karisma, who shares two children—Samaira and Kiaan—with Sunjay, has remained in Mumbai during this difficult period. A visibly distressed Kareena chose to avoid paparazzi, while Saif accompanied her as the couple offered support to Karisma and the family in their moment of grief. Saif, Kareena & Malaika Visit Karisma After Sunjay Kapur's Sudden Death Sunjay's final tweet mourned the Air India tragedy In a haunting twist of fate, Sunjay Kapur himself had posted a condolence message just hours before his own death. 'Terrible news of the tragic Air India crash in Ahmedabad. My thoughts and prayers are with all the families affected. May they find strength in this difficult hour. 🙏 #planecrash,' he tweeted. Sunjay Kapur's personal life had long captured media attention. He was previously married to fashion designer Nandita Mahtani, and later to actress Karisma Kapoor, with whom he had two children. Their tumultuous relationship and eventual divorce in 2016 made headlines for years. In 2017, he married Priya Sachdev, ex-wife of American hotelier Vikram Chatwal. The couple welcomed a son, Azarius, in 2018. Priya also has a daughter, Safira, from her previous marriage.

Kanye West makes surprise appearance at Diddy trial: A look at their complicated friendship
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West , made a brief but high-profile appearance at the Manhattan federal courthouse on Friday to show support for longtime friend Sean "Diddy" Combs, who is currently facing sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges. Dressed in white, Ye arrived around noon while court was in recess. Though he didn't enter the main courtroom, he observed proceedings via closed-circuit television in an overflow room for roughly 40 minutes. When asked if he was there to support Combs, Ye simply nodded and replied, 'Yes,' before quickly leaving in a black Mercedes sedan without taking further questions. Combs, 55, has pleaded not guilty to charges alleging he exploited his fame and power over a 20-year span to commit serious crimes. Ye's appearance came just a day after a woman identified as 'Jane' wrapped up six days of harrowing testimony, including claims that she was coerced into sex acts while in a relationship with Combs. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Are you ready to conquer a planet? Undo While prosecutors paint a picture of abuse and coercion, Combs' defense team argues the government is targeting private, consensual encounters. Kanye and Diddy: From Mutual Admiration to Public Feud Live Events Ye and Diddy's relationship was once built on deep mutual respect. Kanye credited Diddy for inspiring his music and even his marriage to Kim Kardashian, saying, 'So many of my life choices, my wife choices... he inspired.' Diddy, in turn, said Ye reignited his passion for hip-hop after attending one of Ye's concerts in 2009. Their friendship took a turn in 2022 when Kanye released controversial 'White Lives Matter' shirts. Diddy criticized the move as 'tone deaf,' sparking a heated exchange of texts which Kanye posted on Instagram. Although they briefly crossed paths again at Rolling Loud in March 2024, Ye reportedly declined to speak with Diddy. Tensions resurfaced in April when Kanye appeared to reference the charges against Diddy in a remix of 'Like That,' rapping: "I just f—ed your b in a Sean John tank top." Despite the fallout, Ye's courtroom appearance signals a complex and enduring — if strained — bond. Whether this marks reconciliation or just a gesture of loyalty remains to be seen as Diddy's high-stakes trial unfolds.
