- Uday Chopra, who hob-nobbed with Nicole and the rest of the cast in Cannes last month, says he thinks Grace Of Monaco was unfairly reviewed at the film festival. "We got panned by the critics at Cannes but there were reasons for that. Grace Of Monaco is not a typical Cannes film, it was never part of the competition section and it just opened the festival. People in Cannes expect a certain kind of language, artistic (production) and this film was never supposed to have it as it's a fairy tale feel good movie," Uday told news agency IANS.
- Grace Of Monaco, directed by Olivier Dahan, stars Nicole Kidman in the title role, Tim Roth as Prince Rainier and Spanish star Paz Vega as opera singer Maria Callas.
