The newly married couple looked dazzling when they walked the red carpet together on the opening night of the 60th Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday.

After their extended honeymoon in Tahiti, Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan have now descended on the French Riviera. Ash, who is a regular at the Cannes fest since 2002 (when Devdaas was screened), is attending the fest this year as the brand ambassador for French cosmetics giant L'Oreal.



Ash looked stunning in an off-shoulder white gown and a diamond necklace. Abhishek looked dapperly in a formal black suit. The couple posed for photographers and walked up the steps of the Theatre Grand Lumiere for the opening film ‘My Blueberry Nights’, directed by Wong Kar Wai and starring Jude Law and Norah Jones.

Ash also posed with her fellow L'Oreal counterparts: Kerry Washington, Michelle Yeoh and Andie MacDowell.

Another Bollywood star who caught attention on the opening night of the festival was Preity Zinta who was there to promote luxury watch and jewellery manufacturer Chopard.
