After creating a stir in its first two days with several pop cultural watershed moments such as K-pop idol Rose’ red carpet debut and Johnny Depp’s return to the limelight, the Cannes Film Festival is still on a roll, ready to generate even more iconic moments! Here are a few of the highlights from the third day of the festival:
Indiana Jones Receives The Palme d’Or
Day three of the Cannes Film Festival was completely dominated by Indiana Jones, the whip-cracking archaeologist, and his entourage!
‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ the fifth (and probably the last) installment of ‘Indiana Jones’ one of the most beloved franchises in history, had its world premiere on day three. After the screening, the movie received a five-minute standing ovation. Harrison Ford, the star of the movie, got emotional over the adulation. Videos of Ford going misty-eyed at the enthusiastic response went viral on the Internet. Ford also received an honourary Palme d’Or for lifetime achievement. While collecting the award, an emotional Ford said, “I’m very moved by this,” Ford said.
“They say when you’re about to die, you see your life flash before your eyes, and I just saw my life flash before my eyes. A great part of my life, but not all of my life. My life has been enabled by my lovely wife, who has supported my passion and my dreams, and I’m grateful,” he said.
Aishwarya Rai Turns Silver Riding Hood

She has never failed to make a fashion statement in her earlier Cannes appearances, and this time as well, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan arrived, looking striking in a hooded black Sophie Couture gown. The shimmering hood is reportedly made from light aluminum and encrusted with crystals from the brand’s Cannes Capsule Collection. The delightfully blingy hood covered her from head to toe and made her look eccentric and ethereal.
Mrunal Thakur Looked Regal
On day three, Thakur channeled her inner Indian princess with a shimmering hood couture by Anamika Khanna.
Michael Douglas Gets A Royal Welcome From Indian Pavilion
The Hollywood star, who also received a Palme d’Or, received a warm welcome from the Indian Pavilion. While addressing the audience, the ‘Basic Instinct’ actor opened up about his love for Indian cinema and described films as “an international language.”
