Bollywood star Alia Bhatt is set to make her much-anticipated debut at the Cannes Film Festival 2025, adding another chapter to her growing international presence. The actress confirmed the news during a recent media interaction in Mumbai, expressing her excitement about walking the prestigious red carpet.
The 78th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, scheduled from May 13 to May 24, 2025, has long been a stage for global cinema and high fashion. Over the years, Indian stars like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, and Sonam Kapoor have made iconic appearances at the event, setting high expectations for Alia’s first outing.
Alia’s international journey has been on a steady rise. In 2024, she made a grand entry at the Met Gala, where she mesmerized audiences in a custom Sabyasachi saree featuring intricate detailing and a dramatic 23-foot train. Her look paid homage to Indian heritage while embracing modern couture, earning her praise from global fashion critics.
Now, with Cannes on the horizon, anticipation is high for her red carpet-appearance. As she prepares for this milestone, Alia Bhatt continues to solidify her place as a global ambassador for Indian cinema and fashion.
