France's prestigious Cannes International Film Festival 2026 is set to see a strong presence from India, with a mix of regional cinema, filmmakers, and actors expected to attend the global event from May 12 to May 23.
Akshay Kumar was not present but the rest of the cast of Khel Khel Mein -- including Taapsee Pannu, Fardeen Khan, Ammy Virk, Aditya Seal and Pragya Jaiswal -- made sure to promote their new song Hauli Hauli.
Vicky Kaushal does not mince his words when he interacts with the media. But when he was asked about rumours of his wife Katrina Kaif's pregnancy, it left the actor blushing.
'Our hearts ache seeing the devastation the floods have caused in Punjab.' 'Seeing our people without a roof over their heads has left me devastated.'

The four-day CIFF was packed with so many other new projects, like Radhika Apte's first directorial effort Koyta, with Vikramaditya Motwane as the producer, Venkatesh Maha's Ko Ko Ko, Jeo Baby's Punishment and Shonali Bose's Black Mountain Monpa.
Chhaava enters the Rs 500 crore (Rs 5 billion) club, and is the biggest hit of Vicky Kaushal's career so far.
