Deepika sets hearts racing on red carpet

The 31-year-old actress let her long tresses loose, while opting for bold, dark lips and nails to compliment her attire. A pair of encrusted danglers and a ring from the jewellery brand De Grisogono were the only accessories she chose to wear. While posing on the red carpet, the Bollywood beauty did a hair flip much to the delight of the shutterbugs. 

Deepika is part of the L’Oréal beauty contingent at the Cannes Film Festival this year and she shared the red carpet space with other ambassadors of the beauty brand like Academy Award-winning actresses Julianne Moore and Susan Sarandon. 

Deepika was not the only Indian star leaving a mark on the red carpet. Actress Mallika Sherawat, a Cannes regular, returned with a bang this year on the opening night. Mallika walked the red carpet dressed in a gorgeous dress by Georges Hobeika, her favourite designer from last year. Mallika accessorised her dress with a spectacular necklace by Messika Joaillerie. 

Meanwhile, India’s poster girl at Cannes, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and Sonam Kapoor will walk the red carpet on May 19 and 21 respectively. This will be Ash’s 16th time at the gala.
