Esha Gupta made her debut on the Cannes red carpet at the opening ceremony
Esha Gupta is one of the Indian faces making her presence felt at the Cannes Film Festival this year. The actress made a stylish entry at the opening ceremony on the French Riviera in a white gown with a thigh-high slit, designed by Nicholas Jebran. The gown had a lovely floral design on the front that added to Esha's graceful look.
Her hair was tied up in a bun with a few loose strands left hanging on either side of her face. She kept her makeup classy and minimal, making the gown the highlight of her appearance.
Esha, who is attending the film festival as part of the Indian government delegation, attended the opening ceremony of Cannes 2023 and the premiere of the opening film - Jeanne Du Barry, which is Johnny Depp's comeback movie.
Esha, who had arrived earlier in the day in Cannes, kept things light and elegant in a striped outfit. She wore no makeup and kept her wavy hair open. She posted photos from her first day at Cannes on Instagram. Take a look:
