The beauty queen that inspires you the most and why: Priyanka Chopra. She has a relentless ambition and strength of character that makes her a shining example of real female empowerment. From a small town in India to the global stage, she has continuously blazed a trail of success, demonstrating that anything is possible when you set your sight high.

A social cause close to your heart and why: Mental health awareness is a cause that is very close to my heart.

I want to create an open and honest conversation about mental health so that everyone knows that it’s ok to talk about it and to seek help when necessary. Mental health is just as important as physical health and should be given the same priority. I’m passionate about this cause and am determined to create lasting change.
One unique thing about your culture/state: One unique thing about my culture and state, Haryana, is its vibrance, liveliness, culture and music. Bhangra and Giddha are the traditional dance forms, and they’re sure to put a smile on everyone’s faces! I’m proud to represent this culture and heritage and the amazing people that together make Haryana!
The craziest rumour you ever heard about yourself: I haven’t heard any rumour about myself yet.

If you win Miss India, what would be your first big splurge: If I win Miss India, my first big splurge would be to buy a ticket to Amritsar, my place of birth and visit Golden Temple to show my sincere gratitude for all that I have been blessed with. Moreover, I would take advantage of the delicious food that the city of Amritsar offers and indulge in Punjab’s unique culture. Then, after enjoying a wonderful few days in my homeland, I will work hard towards my ultimate goal, becoming Miss World.
If you were granted one wish, what would you ask for: If I were granted one wish, I would ask for world peace. We live in a world of conflict, suffering, and injustice. I believe we should strive for a world where all people can live in harmony and without fear of violence or harm, no matter their background or circumstances. World peace would benefit everyone and create a better future for generations.
What would be your advice for the future generation: My advice for the future generation is to follow their passions, no matter what other people think. To not let fear of failure stand in the way of their dreams and always strive to better themselves. Every challenge is an opportunity to grow and develop, so never be afraid to take a chance. Live life to the fullest, stay true to your values, and, most importantly, never stop believing in yourself.
