I Was Born To Do This! - Beauty Queen Lopamudra Raut

What inspired you to participate in Femina Miss India 2013?

I have grown up as a tomboy. I wasn’t much bothered about the way I looked but when I joined college for engineering, I started receiving a lot of compliments about my looks. I have always believed that nature talks to you in one way or the other so amidst receiving all this attention, a friend of mine suggested me to participate in Femina Miss India and I felt that yes I can!

Also, once during some group study for an exam, a newspaper lying beside me caught my eye. It had this 20-year old girl who had won Femina Miss India on its front page. I heard this voice inside of me say that I wanted to do it and I told my friends that next year I will be in the same newspaper wearing the same tiara and holding the same title of Miss India! This is how the journey to the title began.

How much did your family support your choice of participating in the beauty pageants?

I am from Nagpur and participating in beauty pageants is not something that was considered as a profession by the girls of Nagpur. It is a small town and honestly people had conservative thinking. Also, I belonged to a family with conventional thinking so convincing them was a little hard too, especially my father. My father is a very highly educated man, but for him beauty pageants may be a great deal but not a great career. All he wanted from me was to complete my engineering because leaving it in between would have been disgraceful.
