Helly Shah wore international designers to Cannes as Indian designers refused her outfits
By MYBRANDBOOK
TV actor Helly Shah recently graced the red carpet at the recently-concluded Cannes Film Festival. She was there to unveil the poster of her debut feature film titled Kaya Palat.
Best known for her roles in TV shows such as Swaragini and Ishq Mein Marjawan 2, the actor has admitted that most Indian designers refused to give her outfits. Talking about the dresses she wore on her trip, Helly said, "My manager approached a lot of designers when we started planning the Cannes trip. And when the time came, no one agreed to give me their outfits except a few designers. That is when we decided to approach international designers. I would have loved to wear Indian designers’ outfits at Cannes. That would have been a great feeling. But it didn’t turn out that way.”
Helly also shared the problems she faced at the festival and said, “Heels are never comfortable. But you just have to wear them because it looks graceful and nice. Mere pair chhill chuke hain. (My feet are also hurt) I’m not kidding. But, you have to do what you have to do."
She also added that her dress didn’t arrive on time, and that led to chaos as well. “I was panicking. My outfit was not ready. When I tried the dress, we literally had to stitch the dress after I wore it. It was a struggle altogether.”
Helly started her career while she was still in school. She began acting with the Star Plus show Gulaal (2010) and appeared in Diya Aur Baati Hum as Shruti the next year. She has also featured in TV shows such as Alaxmi - Hamari Super Bahu, Khelti Hai Zindagi Aankh Micholi and Khushiyon Kii Gullak Aashi.
