If Indian film industry can’t produce one film a year which can represent them to the world over audience and Film Festivals like Cannes, we need a thorough research over why we lack so much.

However, that do not concern to our commercial cinema producers much as they seem happy seeing the top faces of the bollywood walk on the red carpet representing a brand (L’Oreal) rather than a mega industry of films.

Aishwarya Rai, Minissha Lamba and Sonam Kapoor walked the red carpet as the face of L’Oreal; mind you Minissha went as Chivas face for the red carpet.

This is what we have from Bollywood to offer to 64th Cannes Film Festival at Cannes and why would they decline it.

Minissha Lamba finally made her maiden debut on the red carpet on the third day of the 64th Cannes Film Festival with a Gauri and Nainika Karan creation (gown) in the safest of the colors which even Aishwarya Rai used on the day 1.
Looks lost!

We won’t comment over her first appearance but we must say her fitted bodice and the flowing skirt made a good frame for the photographers around. We hoping that she has got the right attention and moments.

She is one of the women in Hollywood who walks with grace and her charms is less on mechanism but more on naturalism. Angelina Jolie, stunning as always arrived at 64th Cannes Film Festival with her ever intoxicating smile and puckering lips with Dustin Hoffman for the screening of her latest ‘Kung Fu Paanda2’.

On the photo call in Cannes the lady choose to belt, a flowing frock and impressed the gathering. The Salvatore Ferragamo creation stuck to the eyes whoever looked at it. If you think I am adding too much adjectives then take a look at her yourself.

‘Unlawful Killing’ a documentary on Princess Diana to screen at Cannes https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/12/unlawful-killing-a-documentary-on-princess-diana-to-screen-at-cannes/ https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/12/unlawful-killing-a-documentary-on-princess-diana-to-screen-at-cannes/#respond Thu, 12 May 2011 09:48:18 +0000 http://www.bollywoodnites.com/?p=4079

We may sometime forget to remember one of the most gorgeous, gracious and magnanimous figure Princess Diana but at 64th Cannes Film Festival the dying moment of the princess will come alive in the shape of a documentary which will be screened at the festival.

According to the UK Tabloid Daily MailUnlawful Killing will feature a black and white paparazzi image of Diana taken moments after the Mercedes carrying her and Dodi Fayed crashed in Paris in 1997. The image has not been previously published in the UK.

The story behind the death of Diana has been a mysterious tale with some curious findings over the years yet the concrete reason sometime looks not so concrete to be believed.

A spokesman for the filmmakers of Unlawful Killing said: “The picture has been published in full before, in many parts of the world. We acquired the image from an Italian magazine, which had already published it in full.

“It is also widely available on the web. We are therefore not publishing anything that the rest of the world has not already seen elsewhere.”

The film will be premiered on the 13th May at the Cannes Film Festivals and undoubtedly it might open another debate over the death of Diana.

Aishwarya Rai’s Red Carpet Walk at Cannes Film Festival https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/12/aishwarya-rais-red-carpet-walk-at-cannes-film-festival/ https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/12/aishwarya-rais-red-carpet-walk-at-cannes-film-festival/#respond Wed, 11 May 2011 23:20:50 +0000 http://www.bollywoodnites.com/?p=4047

While the talks about Sonam Kapoor walking the ‘Red Carpet’ at 64th Cannes Film Festival has become one of the most talked entertainment story in India for making her debut, the ten time red carpet celebrity Aishwarya Rai Bachchan silently showed her aura on the first day of the event.

Dressed in a peach colored Elie Saab Spring 2011 Couture gown and to complete her over all appearance  Jimmy Choo’s ‘Cosma’ clutch made everything perfect. Now the prospect of a good tussle lingers to get the favor of the shutterbugs once Sonam arrives the venue.

64th Cannes Film Festival: Lady Gaga Surprises with her antics https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/12/64th-cannes-film-festival-lady-gaga-surprises-with-her-antics/ https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/12/64th-cannes-film-festival-lady-gaga-surprises-with-her-antics/#respond Wed, 11 May 2011 23:03:07 +0000 http://www.bollywoodnites.com/?p=4041

You will never be sure what Lady Gaga has under her sleeves (this time she was sleeveless) and when she enters the 64th edition of Cannes Film Festival surprise is a word becomes harmless to use. She made an appearance with a jaw dropping performance at the event which left many of her fans in disbelief.

The pop-diva who makes the news more often for her attires made no difference when she performed on the palm-lined waterfront of the event wearing two-toned hairs, too tight bodice.

More than her performance attire, earlier she entered with a little crazier stuff, wearing just a bra, leather jacket and biker boots.

What India offers to Cannes Film Festival? https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/11/what-india-offers-to-cannes-film-festival/ https://www.bollywoodnites.com/2011/05/11/what-india-offers-to-cannes-film-festival/#respond Wed, 11 May 2011 11:11:56 +0000 http://www.bollywoodnites.com/?p=4023

Every time we make a movie that looks odd, different and gets critical appreciation within the Indian entertainment industry we start thinking that this would be the film that will win us an Oscar, or will be showcased at Cannes but most of the time we fail to attract the foreign jury to speak in favor. And at 64th Cannes Film Festival, the story is no different.

The only entry for this year Cannes Film Festival ‘Bollywood –The Greatest Love Story Ever Told’ by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and Jeff Zimbalist is out of the competition and what is left for the Bollywood celebrities is a walk on the ‘RED CARPET’.

The celebrities on whom the spotlight will descend as far as Indian media is concerned are Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor and Freida Pinto who will walk the under the setting sun for L’Oreal Paris as their spokeswomen at the event.

The only thing that’s left for us to watch is how these three ladies dress up and matches up with the big wigs of Hollywood.
