The 63rd Cannes Film Festival has kicked off, and as has been practice for past some years now, this prestigious French film festival saw some prominent Indians in attendance.

Shekhar Kapur, who is a member of the jury this year was seen donning a traditional high collared beige achkan with black pants at the Opening Ceremony on May 12th.

There was of course, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan as always. Who looked every bit of the gorgeous blue eyed beauty she is, in a pastel gray-lavender colored Ellie Saab slightly off shoulder gown of tulle and mousseline. Alongside Eva Longoria, she was seen walking the red carpet for the premiere of Robin Hood the same day.

In her maiden participation at Cannes was the lovely Deepika Padukone who stuck to a traditional attires. Looking slender the lady showed off a brilliant Rohit Bal designer saree on the red carpet. Hair tied into a traditional bun, Deepika looked every bit a lady of the Indian community she was representing! She was also seen at another time in a dress wear with off white base garnished by light brown and maroon work. Complete with open hair and a bindi atop her fore head, she warmed the hearts of many onlookers with her grace and ease.

Finally there was Mallika Sherawat, a riveting class of her own in a white full length dress, present for Hisss.

And that's all to the first glimpse of Cannes the 63rd!
