Vivek
Agnihotri
Cannes
2023:
A
day
after
taking
a
sly
dig
at
the
celeb's
fashion
statements
at
the
ongoing
67th
Cannes
Film
Festival,
The
Kashmir
Files
fame
filmmaker
Vivek
Agnihotri
made
another
snide
remake
at
the
prestigious
festival
that
is
being
held
on
the
French
Riviera.
The
filmmaker
is
known
for
speaking
his
unfiltered
mind
and
passing
on
his
opinion
on
unpleasant
matters
going
on
in
society.
Vivek
is
quite
active
on
the
microblogging
site
Twitter,
where
he
regularly
tweets
about
things
related
to
Bollywood.
VIVEK
AGNIHOTRI
REMINDS
PEOPLE
THAT
CANNES
IS
NOT
A
FASHION
SHOW
On
Friday,
Agnihotri
talked
about
customs
slaves
and
shared
a
photo
of
actress
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan
from
her
Cannes
look.
And
now,
on
Saturday,
the
filmmaker
took
an
indirect
jibe
at
those
celebs
who
are
hitting
the
headlines
with
their
stylish
and
extravagant
outfits
at
the
Cannes
red
carpet.
Refreshing
his
followers'
attention,
Vivek
reminded
people
that
Cannes
is
about
films
and
not
a
"fashion
show." In
his
earlier
tweet,
he
slammed
female
assistants
who
accompany
female
celebrities
on
the
red
carpet.
Making
a
taunt
in
a
fresh
tweet
hours
ago,
Vivek
wrote,
"Do
you
know
that
Cannes
Film
Festival
is
about
films?
I
thought
I
should
remind
you
just
in
case
you
were
thinking
it's
a
fashion
show."

Many
of
his
followers
agreed
with
him,
and
Section
375
actress
Meera
Chopra
replied,
saying,
"Its
very
sad,
I
said
the
same
thing
when
I
went
there
last
year..
that
it's
become
a
fashion
parade.
Bollywood
only
talks
about
what
you
are
wearing
and
where
all
you
are
being
covered
in
media,
to
the
extent
that
it
becomes
stressful.
Believe
me
it's
not
the
same
for
other
countries.
They've
not
gone
crazy
like
us
on
fashion
and
pr!"

Sharing
Aishwarya
Rai's
photo
from
the
Cannes
red
carpet
look
where
a
man
in
a
suit
was
seen
adjusting
her
clothes,
Vivek
Agnihotri
called
out
the
comfortable
fashion
and
wrote,
"Have
you
guys
heard
of
a
term
called
'costume
slaves"?" They
are
mostly
girls
(a
suited
man
in
this
case).
You
can
see
them
now
in
India
too,
with
almost
every
female
celeb.
Why
are
we
becoming
so
stupid
and
oppressive
just
for
such
uncomfortable
fashion?"

year,
several
Indian
clebs
