The Bollywood star made her Cannes 2014 entrance on Tuesday at the "Two Days, One Night" premiere in a breathtaking gold Roberto Cavalli Atelier fishtail gown and the photographers had a field day.

Though the gown has previously been worn by Kristin Chenoweth at the 2014 Oscars; Aishwarya striking a mermaid pose at the red carpet is unmatchable, the gown still looks fresh.

There were a million eyes on her and it looks like the crowd went to a standstill when she set foot on the red carpet.

The sparkly strapless gown was definitely a stunner; featuring a criss-cross pattern, a waist-cinching bustier and a long train, the gown brought out Ash's flawless skin and her newly acquired curves.

The Greek goddess look was completed with bright red nail paint to match her ruby red lipstick.

Her hairstyle laid gently over her off shoulder gown and her eyes were lightened with smokey eye shadow and a touch of glitter shimmer on her cheeks.
