“Oh Cannes, you have a piece of my heart,” Mahira Khan bids adieu to Cannes with a heartfelt note

There couldn’t have been anyone else who could have represented Pakistan with such poise and grace at the Cannes Red Carpet. Mahira Khan made heads turn and hearts stop with her big debut and all we can say is that she’s definitely worth it!

Wrapping up the Cannes journey so far, Mahira penned her emotions through a beautiful Instagram post. “Oh Cannes you have a piece of my heart! Thank you for taking us in with open arms, you were warm and generous,” the diva wrote.
