Urvashi Rautela has emerged as one of the most talked-about personalities in Indian cinema. Famous for her striking appearance, daring wardrobe selections, and unreserved confidence, Urvashi has carved out a distinct niche for herself in the entertainment business. She first gained attention in 2015 after representing India in the Miss Universe pageant and winning the title of Miss Diva Universe. Despite losing the worldwide title, she attracted a lot of attention for her grace and charisma.
Soon after, in 2013, Urvashi made her Bollywood debut in the film “Singh Saab the Great,” starring Sunny Deol. In a similar vein, at the 78th Cannes Film Festival, she dazzled everyone with her range of fashion moments. Although she received a lot of appreciation, she was also criticized by many for her clothing choices. Now, she has given a befitting reply to every troll.

Urvashi Rautela replied after being criticised for her Cannes appearance
Recently, Urvashi Rautela attended the 78th Cannes Film Festival wearing an asymmetrical dark green tube dress with vibrant details. She accessorized her outfit with a fashionable crystal parrot clutch from the Judith Leiber brand, which retails at an astounding Rs. 4,57,744. For her outfit, she received widespread praise from all over the world. However, her appearance reinforced the comparison between her and Aishwarya Rai. Many people took it as an opportunity to troll her.

Although Aishwarya Rai is iconic, she stated in her note that she was not there to imitate anyone. She said that she is actually the ‘blueprint.’ In her post, she said,
So apparently I’m ‘trying to be Aishwarya Rai with 0 charisma’? Darling… Aishwarya is iconic. But I’m not here to be anyone’s duplicate. I’m the blueprint.
Furthermore, Urvashi Rautela went on to say that she was invited to the Cannes Film Festival to stand out rather than to fit in. She wrote,
Cannes didn’t invite me to blend in – I came to stand out. If my look, my style or my confidence makes you uncomfortable… maybe take a deep breath (or two). I’m not everyone’s cup of tea – I’m more like champagne with fireworks. And charisma? Sweetheart, if you could measure it, I’d break the scale.
Furthermore, Urvashi Rautela told critics to keep talking about fashion icons. She concluded:

To all the keyboard critics – keep talking. To all the queens owning their space – keep slaying. To myself – keep shining, because no one does it like you.

Urvashi Rautela’s other outfits at Cannes also grabbed attention
Meanwhile, apart from wearing a peacock-inspired ensemble, she continued the trend by dressing in an all-black textured gown for O Agente Secreto. Regrettably, the garment was ruined as she apparently attempted to assist a 70-year-old woman.
Apart from this, the actress wore a fashionable gown designed by Romzy. She finished this year’s Cannes wearing a stunning golden gown by Joli Poli and accessorized it with a Judith Leiber luxury brand bust-shaped bikini bag.
