79th Cannes Film Festival 2026

Urvashi Rautela trolled for copying Gigi’s saree look

The saree takeover at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival had fashion lovers cheering until Urvashi Rautela stepped onto the red carpet and sparked an entirely different conversation online. While several Indian celebrities embraced elegant traditional looks for their Cannes appearances, Urvashi’s outfit quickly became the centre of controversy after social media users accused her of “copying” Gigi Hadid’s iconic Mumbai appearance from 2023. At first glance, Urvashi’s ensemble delivered high drama. The actress chose an ivory saree detailed with a shimmering gold border and paired it with a heavily embellished golden blouse inspired by regal couture aesthetics.
