Aside from Deepika, numerous more Indian divas are expected to attend the event. Deepika has made numerous memorable and legendary appearances at the event. Her Cannes red carpet game has always been on top, from sarees to body-hugging dresses to billowing ruffled costumes. In 2019, she stunned in a lime green tulle tiered gown by Giambattista Valli at the Venice Film Festival. A lengthy train adorned her asymmetrical and enormous ensemble.

In 2018, she turned attention on the red carpet in the French Riviera in an enormous hot-pink gown from Ashi Studio's collection, injecting a healthy dose of drama. Her outfit was well complimented with a top-knot hairdo, emerald earrings, and dramatic eye makeup.

In addition to Deepika, Hina Khan will be returning to the Cannes red carpet. In 2019, she had an amazing debut at the tournament. She'll be visiting the festival this year to promote the poster for her next Indo-English feature, Country of Blind.
