Mrunal Thakur is all set to make her debut at the Cannes Film Festival 2023 in the Indian designer label Falguni Shane Peacock. She will be attending the event from May 17 to May 19. Besides the Sita Ramam actress, Diana Penty will also be donning a Falguni Shane Peacock creation for the 76th edition of the French festival. The Cocktail actress made her debut back in 2019. This year, Falguni Shane Peacock is debuting at Cannes after joining hands with Grey Goose. 

Falguni Shane Peacock has confirmed that they will be dressing both Diana Penty and Mrunal Thakur for this year's Cannes red carpet. While the Super 30 actress will be putting her best foot forward at the film festival, Diana had already garnered appreciation for her designer outfits during Cannes 2019. "I am thrilled to be attending the Cannes Film Festival for the first time. It is an honor to represent Grey Goose on such a prestigious platform. I am looking forward to interacting with global filmmakers, exploring new opportunities, and showcasing the talent that Indian cinema has to offer," stated Mrunal before her Cannes debut.
