Aishwarya, who posed along with American actress Eva Longoria, donned a shimmery white and green gown with thorn-like shoulders and a floor-sweeping trail.

Her attire is designed by Falguni Shane Peacock.

Oh, my Lord #AishwaryaRaiBachchan . The confidence in the body language is iconic. The smirk of being numero-uno is so inspiring. Looking like a confetti exuding vibrant hues, particularly turquoise. #AishwaryaRai #LorealParis #AishwaryaRaiBachchan #cannes2024 #AishwaryaatCannes pic.twitter.com/UW9ryMBju9
