Aishwarya, Eva, Natasha and Freida were seen getting along like a house on fire cracking jokes in between shots and discussing their red carpet looks. Speaking on the occasion, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan said, “Meeting various L'Oréal Paris celebrities at Cannes is what I look forward to. I met Natasha Poly for the first time and she is a new mother so we connected that way. With each spokesperson it’s a different connection.”

Manashi Guha, General Manager- L’Oréal Paris said, “Together they represent the diversity that is L’Oréal Paris. We believe there is no one single notion of beauty and that whatever the color of your skin or hair, we are all worth it.”

Aishwarya looked quite stunning in a bright red lip color, her hair left open and styled beautifully by the L'Oréal Paris experts at Cannes.

During the shoot India’s two most famous international faces, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Freida Pinto also got a chance to bond and interact closely with each other.

It was an afternoon of fashion, beauty and bonding Aishwarya Rai and Freida Pinto at a special shoot for L'Oréal Paris at Cannes. This is the first time that Aishwarya and Freida are working together. Freida Pinto was quite excited to be doing a shoot with Aishwarya and immediately got up to greet and hug her when she came into the L'Oréal Paris Glamour Room at The Martinez.

Both immediately got chatting about the festival and in fact Aishwarya was also heard gushing about her daughter Araadhya to Frieda.

In fact Aishwarya and Freida were both overheard discussing the unexpected delay in Aishwarya’s arrival at Cannes which resulted in her missing her first red carpet. Freida mentioned she was really happy to have gotten a chance to finally do a shoot with Aishwarya and couldn’t wait to see her L’Or Lumière inspired red carpet look.

Speaking about Freida, Aishwarya said, “I always look forward to meeting L'Oréal Paris spokespeople at Cannes every year. I have met Freida for the first time in person. All of us L'Oréal Paris spokespeople are so different, but each one of us is worth it.”

According to official sources Aishwarya Rai will now represent L'Oréal Paris on 20th and 21st of May at Cannes. Ash had missed her first appearance this year due to an unexpected ATC strike in France.

Patna, Aug 3: Bihar DGP Gupteshwar Pandey on Sunday charged that Vinay Tiwari, the IPS officer from Patna who is in Mumbai to probe a case related to Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death, has been "forcibly quarantined" by civic authorities in the metropolis.

Tiwari is heading a Bihar Police team which is in Mumbai to investigate an ''abetment to suicide'' case on the basis of a complaint filed by the late actor's father in Patna.

"IPS officer Vinay Tiwari reached Mumbai today from Patna on official duty to lead the police team there but he has been forcibly quarantined by BMC officials at 11 PM today," Bihar Director General of Police (DGP) Pandey tweeted.

"He was not provided accommodation in the IPS mess, despite request, and was staying in a Guest House in Goregaon," he said.

Sushant's sister Shweta Singh Kirti has tweeted, " What? Is this even for real? How can an officer sent on duty be quarantined for 14 Days?".

Rajput, 34, was found hanging from the ceiling of his Bandra residence on June 24 last.

Last month, Rajput's father lodged an FIR here of abetment to suicide naming actress Rhea Chakraborty, said to be close to the deceased Patna-born actor, and her family members as accused. Tiwari was posted as the City SP (East) in Patna.

The Mumbai Police, which is also probing the death case, have so far recorded statements of nearly 40 people, including those from Rajput's family, his cook and people from the film industry that include filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, film critic Rajeev Masand, director-producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali and filmmaker Aditya Chopra.

New Delhi, Apr 14: Legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar on Tuesday paid tributes to Dr BR Ambedkar on his birth anniversary.

The 90-year-old singer took to Twitter to extend her greetings on the occasion of Ambedkar Jayanti and also expressed gratitude for being able to get the chance to meet him.

"Namaskar. Bhartiya Savidhan ke janak mahamanav Bharat Ratna Dr BR Ambedkar Ji ki Jayanti par main unko koti koti vandan karti hu. (Namaskar. On the birth anniversary of Dr. BR Ambedkar, the father of the great Indian Constitution, I offer him a ceremonial offering)" she tweeted.

"Main unko pratyaksh roop se mil saki ye mera sobhagya hai. (It is my good fortune that I got the chance to meet him)," her tweet further read.
Ambedkar, commonly known as Babasaheb, dedicated his life to working for the upliftment of Dalits, women and the underprivileged.

Born into a poor Dalit family on April 14, 1891, Ambedkar became independent India's first law minister, the principal architect of the Indian Constitution and a founding father of the Republic of India.

He also campaigned against the social discrimination faced by Dalits and inspired the Dalit Buddhist Movement in 1956. Ambedkar was awarded the Bharat Ratna posthumously in 1990.
