Fans of Aishwarya Rai were in for a treat on Monday when the official Instagram account of L'Oréal Paris posted a slew of black and white photos of the star preparing for the Cannes Film Festival.
Aishwarya looked stunning in the new photos, as she sat in the room with her hair and beauty crew, getting ready for the red carpet.
Aishwarya is dressed in a white robe, with her hair untied. In one photo, she is seen putting mascara to her eyes, while in another, the celebrity stares squarely at the mirror as her beauty artist applies lipstick to her.
In response to the new photos, an admirer wrote, "She looks breathtaking even while getting ready."
A second fan remarked, "The most beautiful woman in this world." A comment stated, “She's looking so much better in this robe than those 'costumes'.”
Aishwarya's red carpet appearances at Cannes this year alienated fans and sparked debate on social media.
On Thursday, she wore a black and gold Falguni and Shane Peacock gown to the Megalopolis premiere, directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
She made her second appearance at the screening of Kinds of Kindness, wearing a silver and blue gown with dramatic sleeves and a poufy skirt.
