CANNE INDIA DO IT?

Though, no Indian film has made it to its competition category, a few Indian stars will be present for the festival and even fewer Indian films will be screened in the festival's non-competition section. Apart from Aishwarya, Abhishek and Sonam Kapoor, Preity Zinta will be adding to the desi star power at Cannes but as brand ambassador for Chopard.

The Cannes International Film Festival, the most glamorous event on the festival calendar, has returned to celebrate its 61st year. And Aishwarya Rai's annual presence at the festival has added a unique Bollywood hue to the red carpet proceedings.

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES

Actresses (L to R) Rachida Brakni, Eva Longoria Parker and Aishwarya Rai arrive for the screening of Brazilian director Fernando Meirelles' film Blindness on the opening night of the 61st Cannes Film Festival on May 14, 2008.

THE FRENCH KISS?

Aishwarya Rai, now a regular at Cannes, will be present as the brand ambassador for L'Oreal, her arm candy husband Abhishek Bachchan is also expected to be there to promote his upcoming film Dilli 6, which will be showcased during the festival.

WINSOME THREESOME

Ash's choice of attire has always created waves at Cannes. In 2003, the Armani-clad Ash was the first Indian actor to sit on the prestigious judges’ panel and the following year, decked in Chopard and a Neeta Lulla skimpy white dress, she made quite a few heads turn.

BLACK BEAUTY

Black was Ash's colour of choice in 2005 and she arrived hand in hand with fellow L’Oreal brand ambassador Andie MacDowell in 2006. This year Ash again chose to slip into a black dress to walk the red carpet.
