Aishwarya Rai, a regular at the Cannes Film Festival, is also set to walk the red carpet this year. On Wednesday evening, she was seen at the airport with her daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, heading for Cannes. Her right arm was in a sling.
In a video shared on Instagram by a paparazzi account, Aishwarya was seen getting out of her car with her daughter.
The actor had her right arm in a sling, with a white cast visible around her wrist. She wore a knee-length blue coat with a black outfit and kept her hair untied.
Aaradhya was seen in a light blue hoodie and black pants. Aishwarya waved at the media briefly and then entered the Mumbai airport.
Aishwarya Rai first appeared on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival in 2002 when her film Devdas premiered. She was wearing a Neeta Lulla saree with heavy gold jewellery.
She was present with actor Shah Rukh Khan and director Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Since then, the actor has graced the festival almost every year.
She will once again mark her presence at the gala as one of the brand ambassadors for L'Oreal Paris.
