Bollywood actress Janhvi Kapoor is making waves at the Cannes Film Festival, and her latest appearance is a beautiful tribute to India’s rich cultural heritage. After turning heads in a stunning blush pink outfit during her debut, Janhvi wowed the crowd once again at the premiere of her film Homebound—this time in a traditional-yet-modern mint green gown that paid homage to her Indian roots.
Custom Anamika Khanna Gown with a Regal Touch
For her second look at Cannes, Janhvi Kapoor chose a custom-made gown by Indian designer Anamika Khanna. The outfit featured a graceful, backless design in a soft mint green shade, complete with a long, flowing train. The gown had a high neckline and was beautifully decorated with antique gold embroidery on the bodice, giving it a royal yet modern appearance.
Her elegant look was more than just fashionable—it was meaningful. It was clearly designed to represent Indian craftsmanship and culture on a global stage.
A Beautiful Blend of Traditional Jewellery
To complete her look, Janhvi wore a mix of traditional Indian jewellery. Her accessories included a curated mix of antique and custom-made jade and jadau pieces. These jewellery items added a vintage feel to the whole outfit, perfectly balancing old-world charm with modern style.
She wore her hair in a neat, sleek bun and opted for traditional Indian earrings that added a final elegant touch to her appearance. The result was a perfect combination of contemporary fashion and deep-rooted tradition.

Janhvi made her Cannes debut earlier in the week, where she wore a handcrafted Tarun Tahiliani lehenga. That outfit, made in Banaras, featured a traditional ghoonghat (veil) and was seen by many fans as a tribute to her late mother, legendary actress Sridevi. It also highlighted her pride in her Indian heritage.
About Her Film Homebound
Homebound is the film Janhvi is promoting at Cannes. It tells the emotional story of two childhood friends from a small village in North India. They both dream of joining the police force to gain respect and dignity, but as they get closer to their goal, their friendship is put to the test.
The film has a strong team behind it. Hollywood legend Martin Scorsese is the executive producer, and it is directed by Neeraj Ghaywan. The film is produced by Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, and Somen Mishra. Janhvi is joined at the festival by her co-stars Ishaan Khatter and Vishal Jethwa, as well as the film’s creative team.
