In a recent interview to news agency PTI, the Raanjhanaa actress spoke about her preparations for the Cannes this year. Sonam said that she 'has not prepared much' for her appearance at the Cannes this time. "This year, since we are busy doing so many other things, I have not prepared much for Cannes. Usually, my sister Rhea styles me and she is busy making the film Veere Di Wedding. I was busy shooting for two films and promoting our fashion brand Rheson," PTI quoted Sonam as saying.

She added: ""We decided not to put any pressure on ourselves and just have a good time. So we don't think about it much. It's not about the status quo of being on the red carpet."

Meanwhile, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan closed her red carpet appearance at Cannes dressed in a red Ralph & Russo gown. See pictures here.
