With 14 years on the Cannes red carpet behind her, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is one of the biggest celebrities at the film festival, greeted annually by fans shrieking her name as she navigates the flashbulb-popping stretch to the Palais de Festivals. However, in what must have been a sobering reality check for the star, she found herself unrecognized and almost turned away from an event on the sidelines of the film festival this year. And, horror of horrors, the location she was almost turned away from was the India Pavilion, run jointly by FICCI and the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting.
In addition to her duties for L’Oreal, who she has represented at Cannes for almost 15 years now, Aishwarya was showcasing her work-in-progress film Jazbaa at Cannes last month. Arriving for a Jazbaa-related event at India Pavilion, Aishwarya’s car was barred by security because it was missing the required security document.
