Anurag Kashyap’s Kennedy premiered at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday, at midnight. The director walked the red carpet with the film’s stars, Sunny Leone and Rahul Bhat. Videos and photos of the film’s cast and crew, walking the red carpet, are being circulated on social media. In one of the videos, Anurag can be seen helping Sunny with her dress as it gets stuck under her shoe.
Sunny shared a few photos from the premiere, wrote in the caption, “The world premier of #kennedy and I could not be more proud to represent Indian cinema. Such an amazing moment for myself and the entire team!”
Sharing another set of photos, she wrote, “The proudest moment of my career so far! Thank you @anuragkashyap10 for this moment! And @itsrahulbhat for letting me be share the screen with you in this amazing performance! Love you both!”
In an earlier chat with Forbes India, Sunny said that with Kennedy, no one can say that she is in the film for the “glamour quotient.” She said, “All those people who said you can’t do this, or you’re not good enough, or you know you are just Sunny Leone, the porn star, you are just this glamour quotient that we’ve added, all of these different comments that have gone on for so many years. You can’t say that this time. You can’t just say Sunny Leone is in this film because of who she is and what her past was.”
The film is a dark thriller shot over 30 days in Mumbai, during the pandemic. Another Indian film, Kanu Behl’s Agra, also premiered at Cannes on the same day.
