HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | BOLLYWOOD The Bachchans dazzle at Cannes Film Fest15th May 2008 22.20 IST By ApunKaChoice No Indian film is contending in any competitive category at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, yet top stars like Aishwarya Rai , Abhishek Bachchan and Amitabh Bachchan ensured Bollywood presence at the prestigious event. The red carpet was rolled out on May 14 for a host of celebrities from around the world. Aishwarya, who is a brand ambassador of French cosmetics giant L'Oreal (one of the main sponsors of the festival) posed for the photographers along with the ‘Desperate Housewives’ star, Eva Longoria Parker and French actress Rachida Brakni on the red carpet while hubby Abhishek Bachchan – who flew in from Miami – graciously stepped back to let the ladies flash their smiles for the shutterbugs. 
It was the opening night of the festival and Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan had also flown in the French resort town to accompany Ash and Abhi. The Bachchans attended the screening of the opening film ‘Blindness’ by Brazilian director Fernando Meirelles. In his blog, Big B describes the film as “an amazing story, but philosophical in nature.” More Bollywood presence was ensured by Preity Zinta who is at the festival as the ambassador of jewellery brand, Chopard. Preity looked stunning in a blue gown she wore for the Chopard and Feretti photocall on Wednesday. She will be at the festival for three days during which she will attend dinners and a picnic as well. She would return to Mumbai on May 17 to continue supporting her Mohali team in the IPL tournament. This year’s Cannes would also hold a screening of Dev Anand’s film ‘Guide’ in its ‘Classics’ section. Related Aishwarya Rai Abhishek Bachchan Amitabh Bachchan Jaya Bachchan Preity Zinta |
