The Cannes Film Festival opened this year with a bang - actor Esha Gupta, star of the film Jannat 2, made her debut on the world's most glamorous red carpet. Esha, who is attending the film festival as part of the Indian government delegation, attended the opening ceremony and the premiere of the opening film - Jeanne Du Barry, which is Johnny Depp's comeback movie. Esha walked the red carpet in a floaty white gown with a thigh-high slit. The gown, by Nicolas Jebran, was accentuated with an OTT collar and delicate lace flowers on the neck.
