The actor opted for a hot pink and red sleeveless gown with a thigh-high slit and a long train for her red carpet appearance on Day 5 of the Cannes Film Festival. In an interview ahead of the event, Aditi said that she is a tiny person who feels comfortable in her body and how she presents herself, which inspires her to give her best to a look regardless of the negative feedback she might get for it.

She told Film Companion, “Sabya was chatting with me and I was like…You know I am a tiny person, now I cannot compete with like all the giraffes around me,” clarifying that she means giraffe in a good way. She added, “I am an actor and I am a tiny person and it’s fine. I am okay with it you know. So I have to be comfortable with who I am and how I present myself. Yeah so I am going to attempt it.”

Aditi further explained, “100 percent I am going to falter. I am going to do some really stupid goofy things, but it’s fine. That’s also me and I will deal with it when I have to deal with it, and people are going to throw tomatoes at me and I am going to be disgusted, I am sure. But it’s fine, it’s all good. The microscope is natural, and I have to learn to deal with it and learn from it I guess.”

Aditi was last seen in the Tamil film Hey Sinamika, which also starred Dulquer Salmaan and Kajal Aggarwal. She will be next seen in Gandhi Talks and Jubilee.
