ToggleAvneet Kaur Addresses Online Hate for Cannes Attendance
In an interview with News18, Avneet Kaur expressed pride in her participation at Cannes 2024. She lamented the negativity she faced online, with many questioning her presence at the festival. Reflecting on the criticism, she stated:
“It was the biggest news and everyone should be proud of that and take pride in that. If Taha Shah or anyone has gone there, it’s a great thing. People should be happy for that. He’s gone for his film, I think, and I went for my film as well. I went to release my poster. People do ask me, ‘Yeh kyun chali gayi waha? Iska kya jana bana?’ Ulta dekh ke khush hona chahiye. I don’t understand why there is so much negativity without any reason.”
Avneet Kaur’s reply to trolls!
Avneet Kaur also criticized the tendency to spread hate instead of positivity in the comments section. She highlighted how people should uplift each other, especially when representing India on a global stage. Praising Nancy Tyagi’s appearance at Cannes, she added:
“Why do you need to spread that in the comments section? You could at least say something good about that person, make their day but they want to do all this! I don’t understand why they do this. I just feel this year has been a very special one for India to go to such a big global platform and represent the nation. So why not be happy for us? Nancy (Tyagi) has done so well. She was all over the Internet. We should all support each other.”
On May 23, 2024, Avneet Kaur shared a video on her Instagram handle showcasing her debut look at Cannes. She wore a white lacy jumpsuit with dramatic shoulder details, a long trail, and 3D embellishments. She completed her look with transparent heels, soft makeup, and a half-tied-up hairdo adorned with floral accessories.
