After turning heads at the Cannes Film Festival with her stunning red carpet debut as a global ambassador for L'Oréal Paris, Alia Bhatt seamlessly transitioned from international fashion icon to loyal bridesmaid in Spain. The actress flew straight from the French Riviera to attend the wedding of her close friend Tanya Saha Gupta—and the internet can't get enough of her heartwarming switch from couture to celebration. In newly surfaced photos and videos across Instagram and X, Alia is seen donning a chic black strapless gown as one of the bridesmaids during the wedding ceremony.

Aishwarya Rai's unseen photoshoot from Cannes surfaces online, netizens say ‘insane face card'
Bollywood actor Aishwarya Rai recently attended the Cannes Film Festival and made headlines with her multiple red-carpet looks. While she was praised for serving traditional and non-traditional looks at the festival, an unseen photo from her photoshoot has now surfaced online. Reportedly, it is from France. For a change, Aishwarya ditched her usual outfits such as black gowns and sarees and slipped into a mauve pantsuit. She was only accessorised in a ring on her hand while her luscious wavy hair became the highlight of the look. She finished it off with her signature red lips and looked effortlessly gorgeous in the photos. While she posed confidently in the first picture, the second one had her in the middle of the makeup session. The pictures have emerged on Reddit. Reacting to the new look, many hailed Aishwarya for her refreshing look. A user wrote in the comments, 'I'm happy as long as its not a tent outfit and middle partition hair (sic).' 'Love this look so much. And her in the second slide (sic),' added another. One more commented, 'That insane face card! Can still mog half the film industry.' Someone else also called it her 'best look.' Aishwarya attended the film festival at Cannes as the global ambassador for L'Oréal Paris. She walked the red carpet on May 21 and 22. On day 1, she stunned in a traditional saree with her sindoor and bindi look. She wore a white saree from Manish Malhotra with golden embellishments and a golden border. Her saree came with a long pallu on her left with another flowy train-like extension to her right. Her look was accessorised with traditional Indian jewellery made out of diamonds and red rubies. The highlight of her look was the bright red sindoor on her forehead with a bindi. On day 2, she switched to a modern look in a body-fitting strapless black gown, along with a silver cover-up around her. She was accessorised in diamond rings and earnings. She opted for bold red lipstick which held her look together. Ditching her signature sleek, straight hair, she opted for soft curls for the gown look. Aishwarya Rai attended Cannes with her daughter Aaradhya Rai Bachchan as usual. Besides her, Alia Bhatt also made her Cannes debut this year. She too attended the film festival as the global ambassador for L'Oréal Paris. Aishwarya was last seen in Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan: II.

‘Grown up watching Aishwarya walk the carpet in all her glory': Alia Bhatt says Cannes debut was her ‘pinch-me moment', reveals how she chose her looks
Alia Bhatt made her much-awaited debut at the Cannes Film Festival as a global ambassador for L'Oréal Paris, and by her own admission, it was a moment she'll never forget. In a candid video interview with Brut, Alia opened up about what it felt like to walk one of the most glamorous red carpets in the world — from the nerves to the inspiration behind her look, and everything in between. A post shared by Alia Bhatt 💛 (@aliaabhatt) Describing the moment as 'pretty overwhelming,' Alia shared, 'There's a lot of people and there's a lot of energy and you're also focusing on looking good and smiling correctly and like not tripping over your dress and stuff.' While the world might only see the stunning photos, Alia revealed the mix of excitement and pressure that comes with such a high-profile appearance. 'I think everybody… you know, you talk so much about it leading up to it, also over the years. Ever since the social media boom, I think around this time everybody's on their phone looking at the red carpet looks, looking at the beauty looks.' Alia confessed she had grown up watching Aishwarya Rai Bachchan walk the Cannes carpet,''I, for one, have actually grown up watching, you know, Aishwarya walk the carpet in all her glory. She really represented India on this global stage. It was always such a huge inspiration. So it really feels very nice — like a pinch-me moment — to be here.' A post shared by Alia Bhatt 💛 (@aliaabhatt) As for her red carpet looks, Alia's approach was refreshingly grounded. 'When I go for any appearance… I'm more focused on how I'm feeling as opposed to how I'm looking. 'Cause I feel like if you feel good, you look good.' She added, 'You have to have a part of yourself in any expression — whether it's fashion or creative. If it's not authentic, it just sort of falls flat.' She and her team didn't overthink the process, she said. 'Just trying on the look, seeing what comes to your mind first — okay, this works, okay let's go with this. I also like to move really quick. I don't like to take too much time or overthink anything. So yeah, it's a very seamless, simple process.'
