Comedian and actor Vir Das has once again showcased his signature wit—this time taking a dig at the newly introduced dress code at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. With rules reportedly discouraging attention-grabbing outfits such as voluminous gowns, nude dresses and long trains, Cannes has taken a stricter stance on red carpet fashion this year.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
