"How dare you put Aishwarya Rai in second," read a comment. A second comment read, "Aishwarya Rai had to be mentioned too." Another user added, "You couldn't mention Aishwarya Rai in your caption who's been attending Cannes since before Greta Gerwig? The racism that the west holds for Indians will never fail to amaze me." Another user wrote, "Need single post for the OG queen of Cannes Aishwarya Rai." Another fan asked, "Why was Aishwarya Rai Bachchan not mentioned?" Another added, "You not @aishwaryaraibachchan_arb is just sad! #snubbsters."
