[Watch] Aishwarya’s ‘Wrapped In Foil’ Cannes Look: Did She Do It For Memes?

New Delhi: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan never fails to make a statement at the Cannes film festival where she is a regular. However, this time, the Ponniyin Selvan: II actress made a never-before appearance on the red carpet wearing a silver hooded cape gown.

The former Miss World attended the Thursday night screening of Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny after making a bold statement in the gorgeous hooded silver cape gown from Sophie Couture’s racks. However, Aishwarya’s outfit did not go down well with a section of the internet. Many netizens pointed out that Aishwarya’s ensemble felt like “a foil wrap”.

One user wrote, “First Christmas wrap and now foil wrap… I’m so done… The only hope I had this year was her.” Another one commented, “First was a gift wrapper, next was how to tie the wrapper around the present and a add a neat bow, and finally it will be how to place it under the Christmas tree.” A third user said, “If I say even Urvashi (Rautela) was better this year I might get downvoted but it’s A FACT.” “Absolutely love her but the dress kinda looks like tin foil,” a fourth user commented.
