Sonam charms Cannes red carpet with her distinct and elegant look

Sonam Kapoor showed off another iconic look from her Cannes fashion diaries as the actress slayed the gala's red carpet in a striking Elie Saab ensemble.

This is 31-year-old actress' seventh year at the French Riveria movie carnival and she made sure that her outfit stood out from the rest.


The diva appeared coruscating in the exquisite pink gown with a long train and bell sleeves. Teaming it with custom made rose gold jewellery from Kalyan Jewelers and hair tied in a loose bun, Sonam carried the look with a lot of panache.

She accentuated her eyes with La Palette Nude eyeshadow in gold and True Match Lumi Power in rose, finishing it with superliner black lacquer and dollops of superstar mascara.

Sonam, who walked the red carpet as L'Oreal Paris India brand ambassador, posed with actresses Andie MacDowell and Araya A Hargate at the event.

The actress also took to Instagram to share her red carpet look from the festival.

"I know who I am. I am not perfect. I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world. But I'm one of them. Mary J. Blige #sonamatcannes #sonamatcannes #kalyanjewellery," she wrote alongside one of the photos.

For her day appearances on Monday, the actress opted for two opposite looks.

She first flaunted a mustard and red outfit by Anamika Khanna and Apala by Sumit. She added a bohemian touch to her look by sporting a red headband and chunky jewellery.

Sonam then went breezy with a white and aqua blue kaftan gown by Indian designer duo Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla.

For her first appearance at the festival this year, the actress had impressed with her unicorn coloured sari.

John Cena becomes greatest WWE champion of all time with historic 17th title

John Cena has just stepped into new territory, becoming the only wrestler in WWE history to hold 17 world championship titles. His win over Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 was a career-defining moment that now separates him from wrestling icon Ric Flair, who held the record at 16 for decades.

The win came with help from rapper Travis Scott, whose surprise appearance tipped the match in Cena’s favour. It’s a twist that fits right into Cena’s recent shift into a heel (villain) role, a first in over 20 years. At 47, Cena’s still playing the game like he’s got something to prove, even after announcing his retirement plans for 2025.
