The Cannes Film Festival 2025 has officially begun, and as always, the red carpet has turned into a runway for the world's most glamorous stars. Among the many fashion statements made on opening day, it was Bollywood actress Urvashi Rautela who grabbed the spotlight — though not without controversy.
Red Carpet Appearance: A Bold Fashion Statement
Urvashi arrived in a strapless, multicolored gown, paired with dramatic earrings and a matching tiara. Her look was further accentuated with voluminous curls, heavy eye makeup, and a subtle lip shade. However, what truly caught the attention of fans and critics alike was her unique accessory — a parrot-shaped purse estimated to cost around ₹4.5 lakh.
Mixed Reactions from Social Media
While some praised her daring and colorful ensemble, the internet had mixed — and at times harsh — reactions:
- One user sarcastically wrote, "Put her in the zoo," mocking the parrot-themed purse.
- Another commented, "Is this a surgery shop or a fashion show?"
- Others compared her to a "witch" or joked that she was there to "tell fortunes with a parrot."
Although some compared her look to something out of the Met Gala, most reactions on social media leaned towards trolling rather than appreciation.
Work Front: Urvashi’s Upcoming Projects
Despite the online chatter, Urvashi continues to make strides in her career:
- She was recently seen in the song ‘Dabidi Dibidi’ from the film Daku Maharaj, alongside South Indian superstar Nandamuri Balakrishna.
- She also performed an item number in the film Jaat.
- Looking ahead, she will appear in the upcoming films ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ and ‘Kasoor 2’, both of which are generating buzz among her fans.
Conclusion
Love it or hate it, Urvashi Rautela's Cannes 2025 look has become one of the most talked-about moments of the festival's opening day. With her bold fashion choices and a growing list of film projects, she continues to keep the spotlight firmly on herself — for better or worse.
