Urvashi Rautela Calls Herself A ‘Blueprint’, Shuts Down Aishwarya Rai Comparisons: 'Cannes Didn’t Invite Me…'

Urvashi Rautela has fired back at recent online reports comparing her to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan after her first appearance at the Cannes Film Festival 2025. Several articles suggested that Urvashi was imitating Aishwarya and even called her “Aishwarya Rai with no charisma.”

Urvashi has denied these claims, saying she went to Cannes to stand out, not to blend in. She also made it clear that she is not anyone’s “duplicate.”

On Tuesday, the actress took to her Instagram to share a post that read, “So apparently I’m “trying to be Aishwarya Rai with 0 charisma"? Darling… Aishwarya is iconic. But I’m not here to be anyone’s duplicate. I’m the blueprint. Cannes didn’t invite me to blend in- I came to stand out. If my look, my style, or my confidence makes you uncomfortable… maybe take a deep breath (or two). I’m not everyone’s cup of tea – I’m more like champagne with fireworks. And charisma? Sweetheart, if you could measure it, I’d break the scale."

She added, “To all the keyboard critics – keep talking. To all the queens owning their space – keep slaying. To myself – keep shining, because no one does it like you. #TooMuchCharismaToHandle #UrvashiRautela #CannesWithConfidence #NotYourCopyPaste #QueenEnergy #Cannes2025."
