Anupriya Kapur Shares How Influencers Can Pay Rs. 12 Lakh To Attend Cannes, 'They Act Like...'

Cannes Film Festival is a prominent film festival in the world. Top film celebrities like Bella Hadid, Eva Longoria, Naomi Campbell, and Indian icons like Aishwarya Rai, among others, attend it. Considered an exclusive event, walking down the red carpet or attending the event is perceived as a prestigious opportunity for film. However, in the past few years, several Influencers like Ranveer Allahbadia, Nancy Tyagi and Viraj Ghelani who aren't connected to the filmy world were spotted there raising eyebrows. In a recent post, fitness influencer, Anupriya Kapur shared the reality behind such influencer appearances at the Cannes Film Festival.

Anupriya Kapur reveals how Influencers pay to attend Cannes film festival but deny it 

Content creator, Anupriya Kapur recently took to her Instagram handle and shared a screenshot from an email that proposed different packages for Influencers to pay for attending the Cannes film festival. The offer promised an opportunity for Influencers to gain visibility, networking opportunities and professional Content creation with different pricing of Rs. 8 lakh for mid-level experience and Rs. 12 lakh for elite experience. 

Moreover, the document mentioned that the packages would include VIP transport, a red carpet invite, and professional photos and videos with access to the Forbes party. Along with the screenshot, Anupriya wrote that there is no problem if influencers want to pay to grow their brand, but it's wrong when they showcase that they got an invite through some brand or agency when, in reality, they pay for it. It's unclear if she was hinting at a particular Influencer or making a general observation. In her words:

"Just in case you think "Influencers" get "invited" to Cannes and International fashion shows. They have to pay for it and there is nothing wrong in it, but then they pretend they didn't pay and try to act like they are representing the country."

Another user took a dig at Influencers and wrote, "If Komal Pandey and Sidharth Batra go this year, mera bharosa utth jaygea Cannes se."
