Apart from Bollywood celebrities, Sasural Simar Ka co-stars Avika Gor and Manish Raisinghan attended the Cannes Film Festival for the second time in a row, this year. 

The duo was excited about being present at the festival as their short film 'I, Me, Myself' got screened at Cannes this year. The social drama features Avika in lead role and tells the story of a teenage girl and how she overcomes her fears and insecurities. It’s been written by Avika herself and directed and edited by Manish. Reportedly, their short film was amongst the 20 top films that got selected from the entries received from 33 countries!

Talking about her appearance at Cannes,Avika said in an earlier interview, "Last year I stuck to the red-carpet staple, a ‘ball-room gown’ as it was my debut and I wanted to go easy on experimenting as we were equally excited and nervous. This time I am okay to put on something fancy. I’ll be wearing a Reeti Anerja. My only brief to my designer was that I wanted to look my age and just not wear something because everyone was wearing it. I want to be comfortable also as we have a lot of networking to look forward to," as quoted by a BollywoodLife report. 

Meanwhile, Manish looked dappedr in a tuxedo from Mischief. He shared in a previous interview,  "Last year I had grown my hair long enough and walked the red carpet with a classic bun and beard. I’ve cut my hair and sporting a clean shaven look. Too bad we men have only a few options to play with."

Both Avika and Manish thanked their supporters and fans through their posts on social media.
