Deepika Padukone arrives in France for Cannes Film Festival

The popular Bollywood star took to her Instagram account on May 16 and shared a short video as she gave her fans a sneak peek of her arrival in the country. She was seen speaking to an individual at the airport and mentioned that she was on an 11-hour flight from LAX to France and slept throughout the duration. She was then confused about if she should eat or sleep after her long flight and then hilariously said, “Eating is always a good plan.” Apart from this, the actor also gave her fans and followers a glimpse of the beautiful country and shared some scenic landscapes with them. Watch the video here:
