Prajakta MaliÂ
Marathi cinema also made a strong cultural statement this year. Prajakta Mali embraced a traditional Nauvari saree, paired with classic Maharashtrian jewellery. From the royal charm of Shindeshahi Tode to the timeless elegance of the Maharashtrian Nath, every ornament carried a story of tradition, grace and heritage, creating a memorable cultural moment on the Cannes red carpet.
Urvashi RautelaÂ
Urvashi Rautela appeared in a creation by Mihir Designer Studio, wearing white chikankari with a gold bejewelled blouse.
