Bachchans walk down Cannes1 red carpet once more

Pallab Bhattacharya, New Delhi
It is that time of the year when the Cannes Film Festival, the most prestigious in the world, in Paris gets the inescapable Bollywood touch through, who else, diva Aishwarya Rai.
Rai, the former Miss Universe, is in Cannes along with her hubby Abhishek Bachchan and father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan, and appeared together for the premiere of the Brazilian movie "Blindness" by director Fernando Meirelles'.
The Cannes festival has a special place in Aishwarya’s heart. For it was here that she came to promote the lavish love story "Devdas" directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali in 2002. A year later, the actress was on the festival's competition jury. But there is a business angle to Aishwarya's annual walking down the red carpet in Cannes. She is the brand ambassador of French cosmetics giant L'Oreal, which is the sponsor of the festival at the French riveira town.
However, those are not the only reasons why Aishwarya and the Bachchan family members flew into Cannes. They will be in the company of 20 Indian directors to attend a conference on Indian cinema there from May 18 and will promote several films, including Ram Gopal Varma's latest movie "Sarkar Raj’, featuring the Bachchan trio, and Goldi Bahi's film "Drona” Aishwarya will also appear with Steve Martin in next year's ’The Pink Panther 2"
About a year into her married life with Abhishek, Aishwarya is gushing about it. "What is fantastic is when you have this incredible relationship with your man...! think that's the best part of us together," said she.
Aishwarya, however, would like to keep under wrap her plan to start a family. "It will happen when it has to happen .looking forward to it as and when but no speculation right now," said the Bollywood star.
This year’s Cannes Festival is expected to see a galaxy of Hollywood veterans like Clint Eastwood, who is hoping that his child-abduction flick "Changeling" gets the top honour Palm d’ Or for the best film, and Harrison Ford, who appears in Steven Spielberg's fourth episode of the " Indiana Jones" saga, rubbing shoulders with art film directors.
Dustin Hoffman, Robert De Niro, Madonna, Julianne Moore. Penelope Cruz and Scarlette Johansson are among the other stars expected at the festival's 61st edition.
Fernando Meirelles is leading a strong Latin American contingent in the festival and his movie "Blindness", a philosophical thriller based on Portugese Nobel Laureate Jose Sarmago's novel about a town struck by an undiagonsed epidemic that leads to all becoming blind, except a doctor's wife, is the opening film
/Ml in all, Cannes will once again be an orgy of glitzy promotion for movies, wild parties and screenings on palm-fringed beaches and stars walking along the famed red carpet that will bring together cinema Indus try tycoons, movie buffs and celebrity-watchers falling for their stars.
