The 77th edition of the Cannes Film Festival is the gift that keeps on giving. The latest star to grab our attention at the event is none other than Preity Zinta, as she served a chic moment at Cannes 2024.
The actress picked a studded gown from the shelves of Vivienna Lorikeet. The white number was adorned with beads, sequins, pearls and crystals.
With a figure-hugging silhouette, the oh-so-pretty ensemble is crafted from a stretchable fabric, giving Preity a fitted hourglass appearance.

The outfit featured a plunging V-neckline, pulled together with straps and white silk bows, giving an elegant tassel appearance. The backless element added oomph to the look. The ensemble flew down to form a mermaid skirt-style asymmetrical hem with fringe pearl drops at the bottom.
She kept her look strictly minimal by picking a pair of pearl drop earrings.

The actor is at the Cannes Film Festival to present the Pierre Angenieux ExcelLens in Cinematography honour to longtime collaborator Santosh Sivan.
In an interview with DD India from the Cannes Film Festival, Preity recalled how it was Santosh's genius that made her look good in Dil Se despite Mani Ratnam asking her to sport a no-makeup look. She also recalled how he pampered her during the shoot of the song Jiya Jale.
“While we were shooting in Kerala, the song had a little light rain. You don't really see the rain, but it was there. So in the four days there, my bones were hurting in the rain, I had fever, I wasn't feeling well. Santosh came and got me rasam and all the food, and said, ‘Why don’t you eat this? It's hot.' He was really sweet and took care of me,” said Preity.

Preity made her Cannes debut in 2006. She attended the premiers of The Wind That Shakes The Barley and Paris, Je T'aime. She returned to the festival in 2013 as the brand ambassador of the luxury watch brand, Chopard. She'll be next seen in Lahore 1947.
