Film-maker Madhur Bhandarkar has denied that he will launch the first look of his project, ‘Heroine’, at the ‘65th Cannes International Film Festival’.
“Media reporting that 1st look of Heroine is going to be launched in Cannes are baseless (sic),” tweeted Madhur. “Me, Kareena and the whole team are busy shooting #Heroine through the whole month of April and May, so no question of visiting Cannes,” he added.
The annual film extravaganza is to be held from May 16 to 27. Madhur had launched ‘Heroine’ at the festival last year with Aishwarya Rai in the lead. But later, the actress opted out of the project after she became pregnant. Kareena Kapoor stepped into her shoes for the role. ‘Heroine’ delves into the life of an actress in the Indian film industry. It also features Arjun Rampal.
