Actor Urvashi Rautela made another head-turning appearance at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, becoming a talking point on social media for her eccentric fashion choice. A regular at the prestigious film event, Urvashi walked the red carpet during the opening ceremony and the screening of Partir un jour (Leave One Day) in a multicoloured ensemble, complete with a sparkling tiara and a crystal-encrusted clutch shaped like a parrot.
The Look That Sparked Buzz
Urvashi wore a strapless, structured gown in vibrant hues of blue, red, and yellow. The bold outfit was accentuated by a matching tiara, but it was her crystal-studded parrot-shaped clutch that grabbed the most attention. The quirky accessory, reportedly from luxury designer Judith Leiber, comes with a hefty price tag of $5,495 (approximately ₹4.68 lakh). A viral photo shows the actor playfully kissing the bird-shaped bag while posing for photographers.
Internet Reacts With Memes, Sarcasm, and Praise
As images and videos of Urvashi’s Cannes look circulated on social media, netizens had a field day with memes and commentary. While some admired her boldness and fashion-forward risk, others couldn’t resist poking fun. Popular Instagram page Diet Sabya posted a photo of the clutch, igniting a flood of reactions.
One user commented, “So beautiful so elegant just looking like design machine studio,” mocking a now-iconic meme phrase. Another quipped, “Giving ‘Moulin Rouge meets Mayur Vihar’ realness.” Some questioned whether her look was satirical, asking, “Is it a satire on camp?” Another user jokingly asked, “Was Daku Maharaj shown at the festival?”
Despite the mix of admiration and trolling, Urvashi’s Cannes moment undeniably captured social media’s attention.

In 2024, she starred in Jahangir National University and followed up with the controversial item number Dabidi Dibidi in the 2025 film Daaku Maharaaj, which faced criticism for its suggestive choreography. She later appeared in the song Touch Kiya from the movie Jaat. Looking ahead, she is set to feature in Welcome to the Jungle and Kasoor 2.
