Cannes Film Festival every year showcases the creativity of designers and collaborates with our favourite stars and we can’t help but drool at our gorgeous stars.
Social media is filled with the look books and the picture of our Bollywood stars attending the Cannes Film Festival. Deepika, Priyanka, Kangana and Aishwarya has been the acing the red carpet of Cannes gracefully since years. This year another actress represented India on the Cannes platform and definitely turned heads and gracefully walked the red carpet.
Television actress Hina Khan made her Cannes debut this year. Hina who is often targeted by the trolls was even targeted by the trolls for her mesmerizing outfits. These days the celebrities are often targeted by trolls on Social media by the netizens.
But it is surprising when the big shots of Bollywood are seen trolling the other stars.
Recently, the Cheif Editor of Filmfare magazine Jitesh Pillai was seen mocking Hina Khan on his Instagram Story for her Cannes Film Festival Appearance.
Salman Khan also addressed the matter and came in defence for her. In an interview, Salman recently said ‘Mujhe toh eh samjh meh nahi ha Cannes has become Chandivali or Chandivali has become Cannes‘.
This comment sparked fire in Bollywood and Television industry as many actors, actresses, directors and producers came in support of Hina Khan and slammed Jitesh Pillai for his disgraceful comment even before Hina could respond.

Cannes is NO Chandivali studio. It can't ever be. Chandivali is where many TV shows, ad films and features have been shot. Some very iconic one's too. @jiteshpillaai
To a continued journey of evolution and breaking norms, @eyehinakhan ! You go girl 🔥

I'm appalled at this insta story of @jiteshpillaai
Maybe, you had things ready for you maybe you didn't have a humble beginning, maybe you did….but I think hobnobbing with the gliterati you have forgotten your roots. pic.twitter.com/0xU1V3cFJ0— Karanvir (@KVBohra) May 16, 2019

This is the same chandivali studios where @iamsrk sir #naseeruddinshah sir @anupampkher ji @ektaravikapoor @sushantsinghrajput have come up the hard way and made a name for themselves.
We all are very proud of @realhinakhan and for this achievement. We all are with you girl.— Karanvir (@KVBohra) May 16, 2019

Hey @jiteshpillaai Cannes is neither chandivali studios nor biased towards any medium just like some Ass-licking swine editors of India. And @eyehinakhan ‘s journey from chandivali to Cannes has definitely burnt a lot of arses.. https://t.co/jItvTWF1YA

Later Hina Khan took to her twitter and gave her opinion about the unappreciated comment. She tweeted she will work her a** off to make her place in the industry.
I was persistent, I m constant n I will b efficient again n again again. Don’t know where I belong, don’t know if I have to, as d Place don’t define me! Bcause as always I will work my a** off n I will make my own PLACE. My promise,a proud outsider from my Chandiwali studios. 🙏
