'First woman to be her own Godfather': Urvashi Rautela blocking the stairs at Cannes for pics has fans in splits
Whilst at the keynote film gala which commenced on May 13, Urvashi has made headlines quite a few times. From her parrot-core first look, to a wardrobe malfunction (which she carried off with max confidence!), there's obviously, never a moment of lull with her around. This one however, particularly deserves your attention.
Dressed in a shimmering, cape-style Joli Poli couture number complete with a Judith Leiber statement bag, Urvashi attended the La Venue De L'avenir (Colours Of Time) Red carpet.

But first, the photos — and THAT she was committed to! She and her gown sprawled over the carpet-laden stairs were unabashedly having their moment, so much so that incoming traffic from the top of the landing could do absolutely nothing but patiently wait, or turn back and go up — because the queen WAS. NOT. GOING. TO. MOVE. — and the video is really something.

The comment section, needless to say, is having a gala early start to the weekend. "Me when my film earns more than 105 crores", "Mata Urvashi in her mandir ki seedhiyaan 😭" and "Her PR team got to be the strongest one out there. First woman to be her own Godfather🙌" were some of the more hilarious takes.
There were some however, who were expressed being upset at how a stunt like this would reflect on India, seeing as she is technically representing the country at the global platform. "I'm sorry she has nooooo manners whatttttt so ever. Shes representing India unfortunately, and behaving like that isn't getting anyone anywhere" and "It's called basic courtesy! Clearly she doesn't have it ! Stepping aside and saying please pass through isn't going to kill anyone" read a few comments.
But one thing's for sure. This look, sans the staircase dialogue, appears to be one of her best looks at Cannes thus far this year, at least as per the internet's verdict: "It's her world we are just living in it", "Take up space queen 👑👑👑👑" and "Now why is Urvashi slaying more than ARB" read a few comments.
What do you think of Urvashi's literally 'show stopping' moment on the stairs?

Urvashi Rautela Channels Royal Charm At Wimbledon 2025 Finals In A Dreamy Lace Ensemble
Last Updated: Urvashi Rautela turned heads at the Wimbledon 2025 finals, radiating regal elegance in a romantic lace creation by designer Ali Asaad. All eyes were unmistakably on Urvashi Rautela as she made a dazzling appearance at the Wimbledon 2025 finals in London. Known for her fearless approach to fashion, the actress brought fairytale glamour to the prestigious tournament, looking straight out of a modern-day royal fantasy. Dressed in an ethereal creation by celebrated designer Ali Asaad, Urvashi redefined sophistication with her romantic Wimbledon moment. Her fit-and-flare lace dress carried the charm of traditional English wedding fashion—with a couture twist. The A-line silhouette offered a timeless appeal, while the slim shoulder straps were tied into dainty bows, adding a touch of whimsy.

Urvashi is no stranger to statement styling, and this time, she made waves with a luxury-meets-pop-culture moment.

‘Nice In Private But Mocks In Public': Sonam Chhabra On Sufi Motiwala's Double Standards
Sonam wore a white cape with four haunting dates and places printed on it: 2008 – Mumbai, 2016 – Uri, 2019 – Pulwama, and 2025 – Pahalgam. Actor-host Sonam Chhabria has called out digital creator Sufi Motiwala for his 'two-faced behaviour," further escalating their ongoing feud. Days after her initial post, Sonam recently shared a second Instagram story (now-deleted) criticising Sufi. In her initial post, she called out the creator for mocking her Cannes look. In her latest Instagram story, Sonam shared a screenshot of a past chat with Sufi, pointing out a pattern of private politeness and public mockery. 'He DMs friends to give explanations, is all nice in private, but will mock you in public," she wrote. Sonam further mentioned that she had previously ignored it when Sufi made fun of her role in a web series. The rift between the two started when Sufi mocked Sonam's Cannes appearance, where she wore a white cape with the names and dates of major Indian tragedies printed on it: 2008 – Mumbai, 2016 – Uri, 2019 – Pulwama, and 2025 – Pahalgam. Sonam expressed disappointment that Sufi didn't reach out to her privately about his issues with her outfit. She earlier slammed him for mocking her Cannes Film Festival look in a viral video. Known for his commentary and reaction videos, Sufi referred to her simply as 'that girl." Sharing a screenshot of their chat, she wrote, ''Love you' in DMs, but in his videos he doesn't know my name, as fake as it gets." 'Remember me? I'm sure you do, as you gained a million views because of me in a day with the trash videos on my Cannes look. Was waiting for you to get out of the show-not that you were going to win anyway-but it was very uncool of you to troll me for my Cannes attire the way you did. I understand the frustration of never making it to international events. You could've called me or dropped a text rather than making it dirty like you did," her text read. Sufi Motiwala has yet to reply publicly to the criticism. On the work front, Sufi, 21, was recently seen in The Traitors, the Karan Johar-hosted reality show. Sonam is known for her roles as a live host, actor, lifestyle content creator, and motivational speaker. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
