Actress Urvashi Rautela has marked her fifth appearance at the Cannes Film Festival 2026 by sharing glamorous images from the opening ceremony, captioning her post “merci Cannes” as she dazzled on the French Riviera.
The actress attended the festival’s opening event in an ornate ensemble by a Vietnamese designer, featuring silver crystal embroidery, sheer detailing, and dramatic cape-style sleeves. She completed the look with a jewel-encrusted headpiece and a matching clutch, showcasing a bold red-carpet style moment.
The 79th edition of the festival, which began on May 12 and runs until May 23, opened with the French comedy film The Electric Kiss. French actress Eye Haidara is serving as host for both the opening and closing ceremonies.
Several Indian celebrities are expected to feature at the prestigious event, with Alia Bhatt already making a red-carpet appearance, while others including Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Huma Qureshi, and Tara Sutaria are expected to attend.
On the work front, Urvashi is preparing for the second season of the crime drama Inspector Avinash, starring Randeep Hooda, which is based on the real-life story of UP police officer Avinash Mishra and his efforts to tackle crime in the state.
She was last seen in the film Daaku Maharaaj alongside Nandamuri Balakrishna and Bobby Deol.
