In the video, Deepika was also seen appreciating the VHS camera of her friend, calling it ‘oh so cool’. A person asked her about her flight to which she said, “Not bad at all actually. It was an 11-hour flight from LA and I slept throughout.” The video also showed Deepika outside the airport, smiling.

After reaching her hotel room, Deepika was seen resting her head against the door. She said, “But I’m confused about eating and sleeping. So I don’t know if I wanna sleep or I wanna eat. But I think eating is always a good plan.” The video ended with the words “From Cannes, with love” written on it.

As the video ended, Deepika stood smiling while she continued resting her head on the door. For her travel day, she wore a blue shirt, dark denims and shoes. She also carried a bag and opted for dark sunglasses. Sharing the video, Deepika wrote, “#Cannes2022 @festivaldecannes.”
