The actor reached Cannes along with her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan for the ongoing 72nd Cannes Film Festival. Like every year, Aishwarya turned heads with her fashion choices at Cannes 2019, be it in her white tulle gown by Ashi Studio or her metallic dual-toned fish-cut ensemble by Jean-Louis Sabaji.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is a global style icon and countless people look up to her for her incredible style sense and the way she carries herself no matter what she wears. Last year, Aishwarya ruled in a Michael Cinco butterfly gown, which had the shades of violet, red and blue threadworks and which was embellished in Swarovski crystals and French palettes.

On the professional front, rumours suggest that she may reunite with Mani Ratnam for a film based on the historical Tamil novel, Ponniyin Selvan. In the latest development, mid-day had learned that the actor has given a go-ahead to the period drama. With his favourite actor on board, the auteur has now put the multi-lingual into overdrive and hopes to take it on floors by the year-end.
While Rai has previously portrayed grey characters in Khakee (2005) and Dhoom 2 (2006), it will be interesting to see the performance that Ratnam extracts from her. Ever since her film launch in Iruvar (1997), she has given some of her most stellar performances under his guidance. Aishwarya was approached for the project last year. But she bid her time, understanding the layers of her character before giving the nod last month. Contrary to reports, Amitabh Bachchan is not part of the movie. Mohan Babu will play Aishwarya's husband.
