The video, with over a million views, garnered an array of reactions from Bhatt’s fans. “She’s literally the sweetest!! Don’t get why there’s so much hate around her,” a user wrote. “The way she is grounded!!!” another user commented.

“She’s so down to earth,” a third user wrote.

Bhatt marked her Cannes debut wearing a Schiaparelli haute couture ensemble featuring a structured corseted bodice, cinched waist, and delicate white floral embroidery intricately woven across the fabric. Adding a dramatic flourish, the look was completed with a layered tulle train that trailed gracefully behind.

For her second red carpet appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, Bhatt appeared in a sleek, sculpted black gown by Armani Privé, chosen for the prestigious L’Oréal Lights On Women Award ceremony. Elevating her look with a touch of vintage glamour, she accessorised with a bejewelled hairnet and coordinated sapphire drop earrings and a matching ring. For the makeup, she opted for her signature soft glam, featuring nude lips and feathered brows.

Last year, Bhatt graced the Met Gala, turning heads in a floral saree by Sabyasachi Mukherjee.
