What's with these Nose Rings at Cannes?

New Delhi: Among things Indian that Bollywood actresses Vidya Balan and Sonam Kapoor flaunted at the ongoing 66th Cannes International Film Festival, their bespoke nose rings, the traditional 'nath', drew immense attention. Designers believe this



Bollywood actresses have adorned nose rings many times on screen: Remember Madhuri Dixit in the song "Humko aajkal ha", Preity Zinta in "Veer-Zaara", Kareena Kapoor in saucy number "Halkat jawaani", Aishwarya Rai in "Jodhaa Akbar", Rani Mukerji in "Aiyya" and Sonakshi Sinha in "Dabangg"?

Sonakshi is one actress who loves to flaunt her nose jewel even off screen and it goes well with all her looks. Even Hollywood celebrities like Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus and Jessica Biel have embraced the charm of the jewel.

Designers believe the nose accessory can never go out of trend and it not just helps in making a bold style statement but also adds the oomph factor to one's personality.

In fact, while many raised eyebrows over Vidya and Sonam's decision to wear a nose ring at a prestigious red carpet gala like the Cannes fiesta, internationally known Ritu Beri said it added a "sassy vibe" to their look.

"It definitely adds a fun edge to the look," Beri told IANS.
