Many people think pageantry is just about style and makeup. What’s your take on this?

Pageantry is about more than just style and makeup. Beauty pageants have certainly changed a lot over years. Physical appearance and grooming are some of the important aspects of the competition. A beauty queen is crowned based on various aspects including personality, confidence, talent, intelligence, and many more. Pageantry not only helps to showcase the abilities and personalities of the contestants, but it also promotes self-confidence and personal growth.

How do you handle the fame that has come after becoming the title winner of Mrs South India?

Being in the limelight is always a dream for many. However, we should not forget who we are. We need to stay grounded. It's important to remember that the title is something that we achieved but it should not change one's core values. Physical and mental self-care is essential to handle the stress and demands of the title. So, we need to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I should prepare myself to absorb judgment and criticism. Speak and act responsibly. Do good for the community or society whenever I get a chance, learn from my mistakes, continue to grow, and make everyone proud again.
