Joining a lineup of Indian talents at the prestigious event, the ‘Bombay Begums’ star captivates in a traditional saree, accentuating her striking features and exuding sheer elegance.
For her Cannes debut, Shahana mesmerizes in a beige-colored saree, intricately crafted by renowned Indian designers Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla. Describing her ensemble, the designers highlight, “Shahana adorns a breathtaking, hand-embroidered Swarovski crystal blouse from The Raj collection, paired with a flowing peche champagne chamoise satin draped saree.” They further elaborate, “The effect is truly mesmerizing, akin to a magnum of peach Cristal champagne brought to life, as she graces the premiere of her film, SANTOSH, featured in the Un Certain Regard category at the Cannes Film Festival 2024.”
Shahana graced the Cannes stage for the screening of “Santosh,” where she portrays the lead role of an Indian police officer. This compelling film is featured in the Un Certain Regard category at the 77th Cannes Film Festival.
In an interview with Brut India, Shahana candidly described herself as an “untrained actor with no process.” She elaborated, emphasizing the spontaneous creation of cinematic moments, stating, “I believe that you create the moments of cinema in that moment; it’s not a preconceived plan that you come with and make. It comes from inexplicable factors of that day, of that moment, of the energy exchange between people, the ideas.”
Reflecting on her role in “Santosh,” Shahana expressed, “While portraying the character, I had a sense of who she was, but in a way, there were many Santosh.”
