After a cancelled 2020 edition and a scaled-back gathering last year, the Cannes Film Festival on Tuesday rolled out the red carpet for what organisers hope will be a fully resuscitated French Riviera spectacular. Over the next 12 days, 21 films will vie for the festival's prestigious top award, the Palme d'Or, while a handful of high-profile Hollywood titles — including Top Gun: Maverick, Elvis and Three Thousand Years of Longing — will also launch in Cannes. This year, India will be the official Country of Honour, a status that ensures the country's presence as Focus Country at the Opening Night of 'Marche du Film' with the spotlight on India, its cinema, its culture and heritage.A host of Indian celebrities, including Deepika Padukone, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Tamannaah Bhatia, Urvashi Rautela, Richa Chadha, R Madhavan, Nawauzuddin Siddiqui and many others are also expected to put their best fashion foot forward as they attend the grand event.
