Film Festival has kick-started and for a couple of weeks, the resort town of French Riviera will be the one-stop destination for world’s finest movies.For the last couple of years, Indian actors and filmmakers have been attending the Festival, either to screen their movies or to represent the popular cosmetic brand.
However, none of our films have made a mark by winning an award in the mainstream category. The association of Indian film fraternity with Cannes has largely been that of deriving maximum publicity and to create a media buzz.
The Festival began amid terrorism fear; and it has left everyone surprised with interesting line up of Hollywood and French movies. The Festival opened with Woody Allen’s Café Society, with charismatic Kristen Stewart making a glamorous presence while talking about the movie set in the 1930’s on New York nightclubs.
Back in India, the media circus has already begun and the actors have been enthusiastically on the French sojourn.
Aishwarya Rai, who is regularly visiting Cannes for the last 14 years as L’Oreal brand ambassador has already flown to the destination, but not before her team articulately updated the media. Last year, it was all about her next movie ‘Jazbaa’, which was launched at Cannes.
Her interviews were about her glorious motherhood and her daughter Aaradhya. This year, the focus is on ‘Sarbjit’, which will be promoted at the Cannes.Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap will be at Cannes for the premier of upcoming thriller ‘Raman Raghav 2.0’ in Directors’ Fortnight, a prestigious parallel section at Cannes, in which his previous films, ‘Gangs Of Wasseypur’ and ‘Ugly’ have been screened before.
