Hyderabad: The glamorous world of the Cannes Film Festival may look magical on Instagram, but Indian influencer Tarini Peshawaria has now revealed that the reality behind the famous red carpet is far more controlled, expensive and fast-paced than people imagine.

As the 79th edition of Cannes continues in France, Tarini’s behind-the-scenes revelations have gone viral online. From paid photographers to celebrity-only treatment on the red carpet, her experience has left many social media users surprised.

Cannes Red Carpet Is Not As Easy As It Looks

Tarini recently shared memories from her first Cannes visit nearly four years ago, when she attended the festival through a beauty brand collaboration. According to her, the red carpet moment that looks grand in pictures actually lasts only one or two minutes.

She revealed that security and organisers carefully control who gets visibility on the carpet, especially when global stars arrive.
