The Cannes Film Festival 2025 commenced on May 13th with a spectacular opening ceremony. As always, Urvashi Rautela commanded attention on the red carpet with her captivating look.
Entertainment: Bollywood actress Urvashi Rautela once again made headlines at the dazzling Cannes Film Festival 2025, this time with a glamorous yet controversial appearance. At the screening of 'Partir un Jour' (Leave One Day), Urvashi's vibrant strapless gown, heavy makeup, and parrot-shaped crystal clutch stole the show. However, this year, the response was more memes and trolls than praise.
A Glimpse of the Unconventional Look Left Everyone Stunned
Urvashi Rautela arrived on the red carpet in a structured outfit adorned with blue, yellow, and red hues. The most striking element was a sparkling clutch bag shaped like a parrot, which she lovingly held and kissed while posing for the cameras. A matching tiara and earrings complemented her outfit, but it was the 'parrot' that generated the most discussion.
Reports suggest that Urvashi's parrot was not just a showpiece but an exclusive clutch designed by renowned designer Judith Leiber, costing $5,495 (approximately ₹4.68 lakh). Adorned with crystals, the bag's mere glimpse on social media left fashion enthusiasts amazed, while others compared it to a 'petting zoo'.
Social Media's Mocking Spree
While some praised Urvashi's boldness and unique thinking, most deemed her unconventional look a fashion disaster. One user wrote, "So beautiful, so elegant, just looking like a design machine studio." Another commented, "Was the Daaku Maharaj film shown at the film festival?"
Another user wrote, "Moulin Rouge has met Mayur Vihar." Many struggled to recognize her face, with some mistaking her for Aishwarya Rai.
Orry's Jabs: Only a Rolex Missing
Internet sensation Orry (Orhan Awatramani) poked fun at Urvashi's look on Instagram, writing, "Killed it! Walk the Cannes red carpet in such a way that everyone runs away. Urvashi Rautela is only missing one thing – a Rolex." Another user immediately asked, "Where's the Rolex?" – highlighting the escalating expectations surrounding Urvashi each year.
As in previous years, Urvashi Rautela's aim was clear: to capture everyone's attention on the red carpet. However, the opinions of fashion experts and the general public were quite divided. Some found her style fashionable and bold, while many labeled it 'overdone,' 'off-theme,' and 'showy'.
Urvashi Rautela has not yet issued an official statement regarding these reactions, but judging by past experiences, she doesn't pay much attention to trolls. She believes that every look is an art form, and experimenting with fashion is a mark of an artist's identity.
