Cannes

"I can't say much because I've been in the industry for almost 40 years - ten years of playing outside as a musician and 30 years as a composer. I was a director for the sensory cinematic experience," he said. Rahman further shared that despite the fact we have our stories to tell, we must not restrict ourselves.

The 'Ala Vaikunthapuram Loo' actress used the hashtag 'Crafted in India' when she posted pictures of her new look on Instagram, indicating that the look was created by an Indian designer. She then expressed gratitude to Anurag Thakur for making it possible. She said, "I didn't come with a brand; instead, I came with brand India. As an Indian actor, I've come to celebrate Indian cinema."

Very different from the formal monochromatic look of the other seven members of the jury, Deepika stood tall in flowing lime green pants and a beachy shirt embellished with floral designs, all from fashion designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee's Tropic of Calcutta collection, as we were informed by her stylist Shaleena Nathani, complemented by a printed headband, chunky bejewelled necklace and jaunty heels.

Although she's quick to admit that she's still at an early stage in her career. "I think that it is the hardest script I've ever had to write, although I'm very young in my career. But I think that I never struggled as much as I did for this one for many reasons. I was very scared of the expectations that people had for my second film, knowing that 'Raw' (her directorial debut) had found its success," the French filmmaker told Variety.

Shooting now in France, the film is being helmed by Mathieu Vadepied, who made his directorial debut with 'Learn by Heart', which world premiered at Cannes' Critics Week. Vadepied also worked as the artistic director and cinematographer on 'Untouchable', Olivier Nakache and Eric Toledano's 2010 comedy smash hit which marked Sy's acting breakthrough and earned him a Cesar nod, reports variety.com.

The announcement was made through the Twitter account of Cannes Independent movie selection handle Quinzaine Des Real on Saturday. The tweet read: "The Oeil d'Or, the award for best documentary presented at the Cannes Film Festival all sections combined, goes to A NIGHT OF KNOWING NOTHING by Payal Kapadia, a film selected at the Directors' Fortnight. Our warmest congratulations to Payal Kapadia and the entire film crew!"
