Take a look!
Mallika Sherawat arrived in Cannes on day two of the ongoing French Film Festival.
And let us just say that we were more surprised than we've ever been.
Here's why:
The actress arrived to catch the premiere of Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult starrer Mad Max: Fury Road in an eye-popping pink gown.
There was no sign of pastel shades and (GASP!) no bare-backed gimmick this time.
The actress paired her gown with an exquisite Boucheron neckpiece.
While she had no new film to promote or a brand to endorse, the actress was on a panel at the India Pavilion discussing Co-Producing in India.

In keeping with the elegant gown, the actress kept her makeup minimal and rounded off the look with side-swept hair.
