Alia Bhatt's Day 2 Look

For her second appearance at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, actor Alia Bhatt is leaving no stone unturned to steal attention with her sartorial choices. After winning hearts in a peach-toned gown paired with a chiffon dupatta, Alia turned heads in a custom creation by designer Tarun Tahiliani.
