Bollywood actor Abhay Deol bagged rave reviews for his performance in the film ‘Dev D’ at the recently concluded Venice Film Festival.
"Abhay's performance in 'Dev D' created waves at the festival. It is for the first time that an Indian actor has been selected among talents from all over the world. For Abhay it was an honour," said a source.
The actor was seen at the screening in designer wear of Salvatore Ferragamo and enjoyed the centre stage for his role.
"He looked dashing as ever. What added to his charm and glow was his eye catching performance in the film. 'Dev D' received a 10 minute standing ovation at the film festival. It was a sight to watch," said the source.
Abhay was also lucky to get an invitation for the Jaeger-LeCoultre party.
"Bvglari (Italian jeweller and luxury goods retailer) presented him with their latest collection of silver ring and pendant. Abhay never expected this kind of warm welcome. It was a touching moment for him," said a friend of the star.
The Italian edition of the Vanity Fair magazine also featured the Indian star.
The 66th edition of the 11-day even concluded on Sep 12.
