Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap's film 'Kennedy' starring Sunny Leone and Rahul Bhat, received a standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival 2023.

The film premiered during the midnight screening at the Cannes 2023.

Taking to Instagram, director Anurag Kashyap re-shared a string of videos from the premiere in which the audience could be seen applauding his film.

Alongside the filmmaker, was the cast of his film Sunny Leone and Rahul Bhatt.

'Kennedy' is amongst the only two films from India this year to be the official selections at the festival this year.

Sunny Leone took to her Instagram account and shared her red carpet look which she captioned it, "The world premiere of #kennedy and I could not be more proud to represent Indian cinema . Such an amazing moment for myself and the entire team!"
