The movie, which stars Sharmila Tagore, will be screened at Cannes under the Classics section, the organisers said on Thursday.

Sharmila Tagore to attend Cannes 2025

Tagore, who collaborated with Ray on several other projects, will walk the red carpet at Cannes 2025 with Simi Garewal, who also played an important role in Aranyer Din Ratri alongside her. While speaking about this milestone, Tagore shared, “It’s wonderful that Manik Da’s (Ray) Aranyer Din Ratri has been restored and will have its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival this year. This is a very special moment for me, and I am so happy that I will be in Cannes to present the film at the premiere.”
