MUMBAI: The Indian entourage at this year's Cannes Film Festival will be a mix of glamour and cinema. Four Indian films will be premiered at Cannes this year and three Indian beauties will walk the red carpet.
Anurag Kashyap's directorial venture Gangs of Wasseypur will premiere in the non-competitive Directors' Fortnight section of the fest. The film Peddlers and Ashim Ahluwalia's Miss Lovely will also be screened. "I think it's important that India is seen as a country that produces different kinds of cinema, not just Bollywood films," Alhuwalia said. A short film, Chana, directed by Nikhil Pherwani, will also be screened.
Actor Aishwarya Rai will be walking the red carpet for the eleventh time this year. The actress will attend the dinner hosted by the American Foundation for AIDS Research with other Hollywood celebrities. Sources said actor Frieda Pinto will be present at the opening ceremony and Sonam Kapoor will walk the red carpet at the closing ceremony of the fest.
