Minissha Lamba

Minissha Lamba will join the likes of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Mallika Sherawat, Sonam Kapoor, Freida Pinto and Saif Ali Khan at the Cannes film festival this month.

Understandably, she can't decide what to wear on the red carpet, and has invited aspiring designers to tweet in their sketches. 'What do I wear at Cannes?? Indian or gown?? Had an idea.. If thr is any aspiring designer out thr.. Send me ur sketches,' she tweeted.

Minissha will be attending the premiere of director Woody Allen's film Midnight in Paris.

Mallika Sherawat, on the other hand, has apparently found her dream dress. 'yup! some good stuff in Ssstore,' she tweeted.
