Aishwarya wore a sleek black top paired with matching tights and a stylish coat, while Aaradhya donned a black top, denim jeans, and a black jacket.

At Cannes, Aishwarya continued her legacy of iconic red carpet moments. On the first day, she embraced a traditional look, wearing a regal ivory saree with a dramatic pallu and lace trail.

She completed the ensemble with a layered ruby necklace and a dash of sindoor, adding a cultural touch to her appearance.

For her second outing at the festival, she made a bold fashion statement in a custom creation by designer Gaurav Gupta.

The ensemble featured a striking black shimmer gown accompanied by a voluminous white cape.

The Banarasi brocade cape was handwoven in Varanasi. The cape stood out not just for its rich texture but also because it was inscribed with a Sanskrit shloka from the Bhagavad Gita.

Meanwhile, Aishwarya was last seen in 'Ponniyin Selvan: II' (2023), directed by Mani Ratnam, where she starred alongside a stellar cast including Vikram, Karthi, Trisha Krishnan, and Sobhita Dhulipala. She has not yet announced her next project. (ANI)
