@Source: news18.com
Vishal Pandey, the Indian actor and social media sensation, made a stunning debut at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival with his international film Far Away From Home. While many celebrated his achievement, others criticised his debut, labelling it a mere red carpet appearance. Recently, Vishal swiftly responded to the backlash, highlighting his passion for storytelling. He emphasised that his presence at Cannes was about more than just fashion.
In a candid conversation with Telly Talk, Vishal Pandey shared his thoughts on the online criticism, saying, “Pareshaan nahi, grateful hu joh bhi opportunities aaye. Vahan pe log mujhe itna appreciate kar rahe the. Mujhe laga jab main apne desh aaunga, aur zyada hoga lekin mere desh mein mixed opinions mile. (I am not worried, I am grateful for whatever opportunities came my way. People there were appreciating me so much. I felt that when I came to my country, there would be more, but I got mixed opinions in my country).”
He added, “Tab bura laga ki main apne country ko represent kar raha tha vahan pe. Aisa nahi hai ki main apna fashion show karne gaya tha. Cannes Film Festival is about films, not fashion. (Then I felt bad that I was representing my country there, it’s not like I had gone to show my fashion. Cannes Film Festival is about films, not fashion).”
Vishal Pandey further clarified that he had the opportunity to attend the event last year as well, but he chose not to go without a project to showcase.
Meanwhile, the actor revealed his outfit for the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. He explained that it was a tribute to French fashion, but in a desi way. Sharing pictures from his Cannes debut, Vishal wrote, “Debuts are so special and here I’m having 2 debuts! Debut on the Cannes red carpet with my debut international film, Far Away From Home. Eternally grateful! Thanks, Zeeshan Azam Ali, for making my vision come to life and Naomi Chowdary for the effort! Love you guys.”
