Darpan News Desk IANS, 19 May, 2015 12:15 PM
    It was bonding time for Bollywood fashionista Sonam Kapoor and Hollywood star Andie MacDowell at the 68th Cannes International Film Festival here. The Indian actress gave a special gift to MacDowell to celebrate her association with a beauty brand.

    The 29-year-old, who is attending the film gala as a L'Oréal Paris ambassador for the fifth year, heard about MacDowell's relationship with the brand and she decided to surprise the "Four Weddings and a Funeral" actress in her own way.
     
    As a sweet gesture, Sonam sent a congratulatory gift to MacDowell’s suite that was brought especially from India, read a statement. 
     
    Overwhelmed by Sonam's gesture, MacDowell hugged Sonam and thanked her for the gift. The two were seen bonding over MacDowell’s long journey of 30 years with the brand and even posed for the cameras together. 
     
    After turning the red carpet of the gala into blue with her cobalt blue floor-sweeping gown, Sonam picked an Elie Saab creation in lime green colour with a combination of ruffled features, sequins and embroidered appliques. 
     
    Hollywood beauty MacDowell, 57, slipped into a summery tangerine flowing gown with a plunging neckline.
     
    Another milestone that marked the event was 30 years of Color Riche lipsticks and the brand celebrated the benchmark by auctioning the Chopard ruby encrusted lipstick.
