Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting L Murugan will lead the Indian delegation at Cannes wearing the traditional veshti.

The shirt that Murugan will wear on the red carpet will have the national flag on the left side and the G20 logo on the right side.

Guneet Monga, who won the Oscar earlier this year for producing The Elephant Whisperers, will be part of the Indian delegation.

Former Miss World Manushi Chhillar, who made her debut in Samrat Prithviraj, is also a part of the Indian delegation.

Esha Gupta, who is known for sharing her glamorous pictures, will be making her Cannes debut as part of the Indian delegation.

The Indian pavilion, designed by the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad, has been inspired by the Saraswati Yantra.

The theme of India's pavilion is 'Showcasing India's Creative Economy' to the global community. The colours of the pavilion draw inspiration from the vibrant colours of India's national flag - saffron, white, green, and blue.
