CANNES, France : Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made her second stunning entrance on the red carpet in a sweeping beige gown with a delicate overlay embroidered in pink flowers.

 

She attended  'The BFG (Le Bon Gros Geant - Le BGG)' premiere during the 69th annual Cannes Film Festival at the Palais des Festivals on Saturday.

 

The 42-year-old Indian star had brought Cannes to a standstill as she descended on the Riviera in a breath-taking jewel-encrusted gold gown by designer Ali Younes.

 

Marking her 15th year at the prestigious film festival, the former Miss World looked positively regal as she posed for the world's media.

 

The actress was earlier meeting with press in her role as a global ambassador for cosmetics giant L'Oreal Paris and to promote her forthcoming Bollywood film Sarbjit.

 

A host of stars turned out in support of the celebrated director including Berenice Bejo, US drag queen and model Miss Fame, Chinese actress and singer Li Yuchun and Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat.
