Cannes Film Festival 2025: Karan Johar's Rohit Bal rose outfit took 410 hours to make
Well-renowned as one of India's most celebrated film directors and producers, Karan Johar is also emerging as a fashionista. The man embarked for the 2025 Cannes and blew away with his handcrafted ensemble for the screening of his production movie, Homebound, directed by Neeraj Ghaywan. He wore a custom three-piece fit by the label Rohit Bal, and this sartorial's craft backstory is even more inspiring. Let's dive in! Posing against the backdrop of Cannes' soulful streets, Karan Johar boasted a bold drip in an all-black ensemble. Rohit Bal's custom couture featured a silk velvet jacket that exuded elite vibes. The rose motifs in vibrant shades of pink decorated the jacket's front and sleeves. These textured patterns displayed a playful intersection of vivid and sparkly colors, making Johar's outfit a sartorial masterpiece. The craftsmanship elevates the charm of the director's high-end sway. The rose motifs on the jacket were meticulously crafted with traditional zardozi techniques. The rich, silk threads and metallic sequins created a textured design possessing regality. Naturally, this intricate work of art took a total of 410 hours to create, that too, just the embroidery. Tailored with a voluminous collar style and knee-reaching hemline, Karan Johar's drip can be perfectly described as a dapper look. Karan Johar styled this handmade jacket over a plain black shirt and tucked it into relaxed, straight-fit trousers. The Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani director accessorized his suave outfit minimally but lavishly with a statement necklace. The neckpiece featured a single string of alternate ruby and clear stone appliques. He also wore a statement ring set with a large black stone framed with rhinestones. Aligning with the theme of his outfit, the filmmaker flung on heeled, black velvet shoes. This unconventional yet impeccable choice added a statuesque appeal to his form.

Ibrahim Ali Khan reveals what dad Saif Ali Khan told him after knife attack, left him sobbing
Actor Ibrahim Ali Khan has shared a dramatic story of when he met his father, Saif Ali Khan after he was stabbed at his home in Mumbai. He revealed that the conversation left him sobbing. Also read: Ibrahim Ali Khan reveals speech, hearing issues: 'I had very bad jaundice soon after birth, it went to my brain' In an interview with GQ, Ibrahim looked back a the incident and the trauma that came with it. Ibrahim said, 'I was shooting a night shift. He was stabbed around 2:30am and I was informed at 5:30am. I hadn't slept that night and I rushed to see him. He had just come out of the ICU after surgery. He opened his eyes, spoke to Sara for a bit, and asked for me. I was so happy; I said, 'I'm right here, dad.' And then he said, 'If you were there, you would've beaten that guy up.' That made me weep. I wish I had been there. At one point, when I heard he got stabbed, I started to think of the worst-case scenario. That's a very scary feeling. And it was bad; it was very scary. To everyone saying I drove him to the hospital with my baby brother, I would like to clarify that my dad walked into the hospital himself. He walked in with a knife stuck in him and said, 'I need help''. Talking about how the incident has changed his relationship with him, Ibrahim shared, 'I feel a lot closer to him now. If someone in your immediate family has a near-death experience, you don't take them for granted. You become more present in the relationship'. In January this year, Saif was attacked by an intruder who broke into his house in an attempted burglary. The actor suffered multiple injuries, including near his spine and neck. He underwent multiple surgeries and was discharged after being hospitalised for five days. Following the incident, security at the actor's residence was intensified. He also hired Ronit Roy's agency, Ace Security and Protection, also known as AceSquad Security LLP, for his protection. Kareena Kapoor later requested paparazzi not to photograph their sons, Taimur and Jeh. Saif Ali Khan's son, Ibrahim Ali Khan's debut film Nadaaniyan was released on Netflix in March, and since then, he has been the centre of attention in more ways than one. Following its release, the film received a mixed response from audiences and social media users, with opinions sharply divided. One aspect that drew particular flak was the film's dialogue, which was ridiculed and criticised on social media platforms. The dialogues have been written by Ishita Moitra, known for her contributions to Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, Call Me Bae, and Half Girlfriend. She collaborated with Jehan Handa, who has previously lent his writing expertise to the series Showtime. The film was produced under Karan Johar's banner, and also featured Jugal Hansraj, Dia Mirza, Suniel Shetty, and Mahima Chaudhary. He will be seen in Sarzameen, and is being helmed by Kayoze Irani, son of Boman Irani. The film also features Kajol and Prithviraj Sukumaran.
