Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Stuns in Ivory Banarasi Saree at Cannes 2025

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made an unforgettable entrance at the 78th Cannes Film Festival, proving once again why she�s the reigning queen of the red carpet. In a post by designer Manish Malhotra, she stunned in an ivory and gold handwoven Banarasi saree that celebrates the spirit of Indian craftsmanship. The caption reads:

"The Indian Queen of @festivaldecannes. Beautiful @aishwaryaraibachchan-_arb"

Her ensemble, a handwoven Kadwa ivory Banarasi saree from the #mymsaree line, pays tribute to traditional Indian handloom with brocade motifs, real zari details, and a sheer cape edged in gold and silver zardozi. Paired with heirloom jewellery from @manishmalhotrajewellery, her look redefined red carpet couture as cultural storytelling.

How does one woman manage to redefine global style with every step? Since her Cannes debut in 2002, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has consistently raised the bar. This year marks her 22nd appearance at the festival and she didn�t come alone. Arriving with daughter Aaradhya, Aishwarya embraced style. Her deep red sindoor, symbolic and striking caught international attention, especially in light of recent rumors about her marriage. But does her powerful appearance silence the gossip? It certainly seems so.

In 2024, speculation about her relationship with Abhishek Bachchan dominated headlines. Their limited public appearances and quiet social media presence fueled breakup buzz. But Aishwarya�s regal Cannes look, complete with maroon lipstick and a confident smile tells another story. Her recent dance with Abhishek at a Mumbai wedding hinted at reconciliation and her solo Cannes moment only solidified her enduring star power. Meanwhile Cannes 2025 is spotlighting Indian cinema more than ever. Payal Kapadia is serving on the main jury, and legends like Sharmila Tagore, Karan Johar, and Janhvi Kapoor are proudly representing the country. But it�s Aishwarya who once again reminds the world: Indian tradition is haute couture and she wears it like no other.
