The Indian presence at the annual Cannes Film Festival just got hotter with another Bollywood hottie walking the red carpet besides Aishwarya Rai.

The hottie in question is Deepika Padukone who sashayed down the red carpet in a sensuous ivory coloured sari designed by Indian designer Rohit Bal.

Deepika's sari was a novelty at the red carpet which is used to seeing mostly western wear.

In fact, this photographer took an extreme close up shot of Deepika's sari whose border was edged with elaborate gold embroidery. The gorgeous bangles complete the rich look.
