Manish Malhotra made his Cannes debut at the amfAR Gala. His much-anticipated debut look was all about his signature sophistication. Viral pictures from the event show the designer looking suave at the event as he posed sharply for the cameras. His look was a delightful blend of sharp sculptural silhouettes with an array of fauna-themed jewellery.
Take a closer look at Manish's OOTD here.
Chanelling his signature sophistication with a dash of suaveness, Manish opted for a navy velvet trench coat from his label. He paired this velvet trench coat with a sharp waistcoat in a matching hue. Playing with the blues, he added a regal blue shirt and navy-hued broad velvet trousers.
For the accessories, he added the striking Tusker brooch at the centre of his collar button. He adorned his lapel with an array of statement diamond collar pins that sealed the ensemble with quiet brilliance. He added five diamond-encrusted collar pins in the shapes of a stallion, elephant, and tiger. He also added twin falcon button pins that not only brought brilliance and bite but also sealed the look with a commanding flair. In a look that was dapper and suave, he gave a stylish spin to modern power dressing.
Manish dressed Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for her first look at the Cannes red carpet. Aishwarya opted for a handwoven Banarasi saree that she had paired with heirloom jewels from the designer's jewellery label. She wore 500 carats of Mozambique rubies, uncut diamonds, and 18k gold, accentuated with floral and geometric rings.

Diljit Dosanjh Says Shakira Wants Indian Version Of ‘Hips Don't Lie': 'She Invited Me On...'
Last Updated: Diljit Dosanjh says Shakira invited him on her tour after their Met Gala 2025 car ride. Talks about a possible Indian version of 'Hips Don't Lie'. Punjabi music superstar Diljit Dosanjh continues to break cultural boundaries with his unique blend of global flair and desi roots. After making headlines for his grand debut at the Met Gala 2025, where he was spotted sharing a ride with Latin pop icon Shakira and global sensation Nicole Scherzinger, Diljit has now opened up about that much-discussed moment—and dropped an exciting hint about a potential Indo-Latin collaboration. The revelation came during the inaugural Billboard Summit Canada at NXNE in Toronto's TIFF Lightbox on June 11, 2025, where Diljit was invited as a special guest for a one-on-one conversation with Panos A Panay, President of the Recording Academy—the organization behind the Grammy Awards. View this post on Instagram A post shared by TEAM DOSANJH (@teamdiljitglobal) With his trademark charm, Diljit laughed and replied, 'Hips don't lie, sir," sending the audience into delighted applause. But what followed wasn't just a joke—it was a musical scoop. 'Actually, it was Shakira who invited me on her tour. She said, 'We should do an Indian version of Hips Don't Lie. It's going to be tricky, but I'm in,'" Diljit revealed. This playful and unexpected revelation adds another layer to the already viral moment from earlier this year, where Diljit, Shakira, and Nicole were seen riding together in a luxurious car en route to the Met Gala. The clip, captioned 'If global domination had a face – Diljit x Shakira," set social media ablaze, marking a cultural crossover moment that felt equal parts surreal and inevitable. Adding fuel to the frenzy was a behind-the-scenes video shared by Diljit's team a few days after the Met Gala. In it, Diljit is seen casually narrating why they were running late. 'They're not taking us to the main area, all the action is happening backstage. I think the zipper on Shakira's dress broke, that's why we're late. I knew we would be late because of Shakira," he chuckled. But behind the light-hearted humour is the image of a man who has become one of India's most recognizable cultural exports. At the Met Gala, Diljit wore a regal white ensemble designed by American-Nepalese fashion icon Prabal Gurung—his look inspired by the grandeur of the Maharaja of Patiala. It was both a tribute to royal Indian heritage and a bold statement about his place on the global stage. Inside the gala, Diljit mingled with the world's biggest celebrities. Nicole Scherzinger, known for her fierce style and pop diva status, even complimented Diljit on his look. Later, the trio—Diljit, Nicole, and Shakira—were spotted at an intimate dinner hosted by Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, solidifying Diljit's arrival in fashion's most elite circle. Diljit's rise in global recognition isn't an overnight success. He made history as the first Punjabi artist to perform at Coachella in 2023 and followed it up with his record-breaking Dil-Luminati Tour, which saw him sell out massive stadiums like Vancouver's BC Place and Toronto's Rogers Centre—marking the largest Punjabi music concerts held outside of India. In 2024, he graced the cover of Billboard Global and Billboard Canada, becoming the face of a new era in Indian music. An era where language and geography are no longer barriers to global acclaim. His career now straddles music, film, fashion, and diplomacy. That's precisely what made his presence at the Billboard Summit so significant. This year marks the first time the summit was launched in Canada, in celebration of Billboard's 30th anniversary. Hosting the event at NXNE in Toronto, one of the world's most multicultural cities, was intentional. Panos A Panay told Billboard Canada, 'For decades, the music industry was viewed through an Anglo-American lens. But we're finally seeing a seismic shift. Artists like Diljit are reshaping the global soundscape. He doesn't need to sing in English to go viral or move stadiums—and that's powerful." At the summit, a slew of artist-led workshops and conversations focused on the intersection of culture, identity, and music as the new language of diplomacy. Diljit's interview was one of the biggest highlights, not just because of the star power but because of the message he carries: that art transcends borders, and authenticity is more magnetic than assimilation. As for the Shakira collaboration? Nothing's official yet—but if an Indian version of Hips Don't Lie does materialize, it would be a symbolic and sonic celebration of two powerhouse cultures colliding in the best way. First Published:

(Also read: Diljit Dosanjh beats Zendaya and Rihanna to top Best Dressed poll at Met Gala 2025; Shah Rukh Khan not on list) On June 11, 2025, Diljit was invited as a special speaker at NXNE in Toronto's TIFF Lightbox, marking the launch of the Billboard Summit in Canada. In what is being touted as a first for an Indian artist, the Born to Shine hitmaker sat down for a conversation with Panos A Panay, President of the Recording Academy, the organisation behind the Grammy Awards. A snippet from the interaction was shared by Diljit's team on their official Instagram handle. Panos, referring to Diljit's now-iconic Met Gala car moment with Shakira and Nicole Scherzinger, asked, 'You know, you've collaborated with Sia. This morning I was watching your video with Ed Sheeran. Rumour has it that you carpooled with Shakira. I'm curious how you see these collaborations from an artistic point of view too.' A post shared by TEAM DOSANJH (@teamdiljitglobal) To this, Diljit replied, "Hips don't lie, sir..." making the crowd applaud, adding, 'She invited me on her tour and suggested I do an Indian version of Hips Don't Lie. It's going to be tricky, but I'm sure I'll find it.' Diljit's team also shared a video of him speaking about his connection with his Indian roots and representing them globally. "Like for me, being a part of Punjabi culture, I feel blessed, first of all, and I'm very thankful to my mother tongue, who chose me to spread his fragrance to this, on the global stage. Every culture has a different fragrance, like from here, it's a different culture, and it's very beautiful, I think. Every culture has a different fragrance. I think for, my saying is, for new artists, carry your culture. If you want to stand out in front of this world, use that fragrance," he said. A post shared by TEAM DOSANJH (@teamdiljitglobal) Earlier this year, Diljit left fans speechless with his Met Gala debut. Representing his Sikh identity with pride, he walked the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in traditional Indian attire, a turban, kurta, and tehmat, all designed by Indian fashion designer Prabal Gurung. The look won hearts for its elegance, culture, and symbolism. But what truly made headlines was a behind-the-scenes moment, a fun video posted by his team showing Diljit chilling in a luxury car with Shakira and Nicole Scherzinger. In the clip, Shakira excitedly introduces him to her fans, calling out "Diljit! Diljit!" while he responds with a warm namaste gesture. She then smiles into the camera and says, "Hi to India." Another picture shared by Diljit's team on their Instagram handle from the evening showed the trio posing together at an exclusive dinner hosted by Anna Wintour. (ANI)
