Sezal attended the event in a glittering champagne-gold custom gown featuring crystal embellishments and a bold thigh-high slit. The look was a beautiful blend of vintage Hollywood glamour and modern Indian beauty. She completed it with statement jewellery, soft hair waves and glowing makeup — making her a living fashion icon on the red carpet.
Beyond fashion, Sezal’s presence also had a deeper cinema connection. Dustbin, a sensitive social drama, received a positive response from the audience at the Indian Pavilion. The film touches upon human emotions and social truths, and Sezal’s performance in it is extremely emotional and impressive. Her on-screen chemistry with Hemant Pandey adds even more depth to the film.
Sezal said, “It is a matter of great pride for me to be at Cannes and present my film not just as an actress but also as a storyteller. Dustbin is very close to my heart and bringing it to a global audience is an unforgettable experience.”
Directed by Chandrakant Singh, the film is a significant milestone for independent Indian cinema, gaining recognition on a global platform. The screening welcomed filmmakers, international delegates and the media, who praised the film’s emotional depth and strong acting.
Sezal’s confident presence and impressive performance epitomise the emerging voice of Indian cinema — bold, fashionable and resonant globally.
