At the screening, Tom walked the red carpet in a black suit and joined Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and colleagues Jennifer Connelly, Miles Teller, John Ham, Glen Powell, Jay Ellis, Greg Danire Ramirez. and Louis Pullman.
Among Indian stars, Puja Hegde and TV actress Heli Shah walked the red carpet while attending a screening of the film in designer ensembles.
