Like every year, this year too there is a gathering of stars from all over the world in the ‘Cannes Film Festival 2026’ being organized in the coastal city of France. While on one hand, Hollywood and Bollywood actresses are making headlines with their bold and customized modern looks, on the other hand, a unique and heart-touching picture has emerged from the red carpet of Cannes, which has won the heart of every Indian and Sanatani.

Famous Indian-American fashion designer Anjali Phougat did something on the red carpet of Cannes 2026, which is currently being discussed everywhere from social media to mainstream media. Anjali not only represented India on the international stage, but also spread the Sanatan culture and devotional color of Braj at the global level.

Color of devotion on the red carpet: Poster of Radha Rani and Premanand Ji Maharaj

When Anjali Phogat walked on the glittering red carpet of Cannes, she had a beautiful frame (poster) in her hand. This poster had a very charming image of the famous saint of Vrindavan, revered Premanand Ji Maharaj and Sakshat Ladli ji (Radha Rani).

Anjali flashed this poster with full devotion and pride in front of the cameras of international photographers. This is perhaps the first time in the history of Cannes that a celebrity has displayed his unwavering faith in a spiritual guru and deity in this manner on such a global and glamor-filled platform. These pictures of his have gone viral as soon as they came on the internet.

How was Anjali Phogat’s ‘Cannes Look’?

For this special walk, Anjali Phogat chose a very beautiful fusion of Western and Indian aesthetics:

  • Outfit: Anjali wore a very attractive gown decorated with royal blue and golden embroidery, which looked like a great example of her own designing.

  • Jewelery and Make-up: She carried matching heavy earrings with the gown. She kept her look very graceful and elegant with subtle nude makeup and tied hair.

  • Style: Instead of striking a glamorous pose, Anjali had a calm and spiritual smile on her face, which matched perfectly with the Radha Rani poster in her hand.

Fans went crazy on social media, people said – ‘Vrindavan’s magic reaches Cannes’

After these pictures of Anjali Phogat went viral, there has been a flood of Indian users and devotees of Premanand Ji Maharaj on social media (especially Instagram and X). People are praising this step of Anjali.

One user wrote, “Where people consider body exposure in Cannes as fashion, Anjali has given recognition to our Sanatani culture and devotion to Vrindavan across the seven seas. Respect from the heart!” Another user said, “Radha-Radha’s name now echoed in Cannes, France as well. My eyes became moist after seeing such devotion towards Premanand Ji Maharaj.”
