Cannes Film Festival: Deepika Padukone, Hina Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and more lend star power

Star power extending from Hollywood to Bollywood is out in full force at this year’s 75th Cannes Film Festival, making us almost forget how muted the same celebrations were last year owing to the pandemic. Currently, Cannes is the playground of talents from around the world.

She added the hashtags #cannes2022, #cannesfilmfestival and #frenchriviera.

This is Hina Khan's second outing at the prestigious event. On Sunday the actress unveiled the poster of her upcoming film Country of Blind at the Indian Pavilion at Cannes. Sharing the poster on her Instagram handle, she wrote a long note that read, "It's not easy to make experimenting cinema for anyone but making it internationally reasonable too is a harder job, especially for independent Filmakers. We too were met with such challenges but we decided to stick with the essence of the story. As an actor it was both extraordinary and interesting to play a Blind girl for more reasons then I can write now. First look of our creative leap of faith 'Country of Blind' was unveiled in the most prestigious Cannes Film Festival 2022 - Indian Pavilion."
