According to sources, Alia Bhatt eagerly anticipated Cannes red carpet debut has been postponed as it was originally scheduled for this year. Due to India’s growing tension with Pakistan, she was withdrawn from the esteemed event just before the opening ceremony. According to a story, she was scheduled to attend the Cannes Film Festival’s opening ceremony in France as an ambassador for a cosmetic company. Considering the continuing dispute, she abruptly canceled. She might, however, appear later if things improve, according to a different article.

Alia, meantime, sent a heartfelt letter yesterday in which she honored the mothers’ strength and the troops’ valor while reflecting on the silence of a war-torn country.

The Gangubai Kathiawadi actress wrote on her Instagram handle,”The last few nights have felt… different. There’s a certain stillness in the air when a nation holds its breath. And over the past few days we’ve felt that stillness. That quiet anxiety. That pulse of tension that hums beneath every conversation, behind every news notification, around every dinner table.”

She further added, “We have felt the weight of knowing that somewhere, out there in the mountains, our soldiers are awake, alert, and in danger. While most of us are tucked into our homes, there are men and women standing in the dark, guarding our sleep with theirs. With their lives. And that reality…it does something to you. Because you realise this isn’t just bravery. It’s sacrifice. And behind every uniform is a mother who hasn’t slept either. A mother who knows her child is facing a night not of lullabies, but of uncertainty. Of tension. Of silence that can shatter in an instant.

Speaking of Cannes, the film festival will end on May 24 after starting on May 13. Certain dress code limitations have been announced by the authorities. According to the rules, “nudity is prohibited on the red carpet, as well as in any other area of the festival.” “Voluminous outfits, especially those with a large train, that hinder the proper flow of guests and complicate seating in the theater are not permitted,” the requirements further say.
