Tell us about your family:

I am blessed with a beautiful family of four—my supportive husband, my 10-year-old daughter, and my son who is about to turn three. My family is my foundation, where love, respect, and support are not just values, but a way of life. As a wife, I’ve learned the true essence of unconditional love, sacrifice, and partnership.

Quotes that keep you going, motivate you:

  1. Empower a woman, and you spark a legacy of strength, resilience, and generational transformation.
  2. Be your true self, for all others are mere echoes—know your essence and trust the journey within.
  3. Nobody is flawless — not me, not you, not anyone. Peace begins when you accept yourself and respect others as they are.
  4. Perfection isn’t what counts — authenticity is what truly matters.
  5. A crown is not just an ornament—it’s a responsibility to uplift the unheard and inspire the unseen.

Achievements/ Anything you are proud of yourself?

I believe my greatest accomplishment isn’t defined by titles or trophies, but by the person I’ve become—stronger, more compassionate, and driven to make a positive impact. I was honoured to be crowned 2nd runner-up in a beauty pageant in Carolina in 2024. Yet, my true success lies in the unwavering support of my family and my dedication to inspiring others. One personal milestone I’m especially proud of is losing 10–12 kg of weight after the birth of my second child, reflecting my resilience and commitment to personal growth. 

What is Women Empowerment according to you?

Women empowerment in my view is about to create an opportunity in education, careers, and personal development. It’s the ability to break free from societal norms and gender equality stereotypes, providing an environment where women have the freedom, support, autonomy to shape their own lives and pursue their aspirations. True empowerment also means legal protection—such as safeguarding against domestic violence—so that women can realize their full potential and participate equally in every sphere of society.

Message for the society.

I stand not merely as a titleholder but voice for every woman who dares to dream beyond limitation. True beauty lies in strength, compassion and courage to rise after every failure. When you empower a woman, you uplift an entire generation. Let’s, break the barriers, challenge stereotypes, and create a future where being a woman is celebrated – not silenced. The time for change is now and it begin with each one of us.

How will you give back to society after becoming a Queen?

I am committed to using my voice to uplift others, especially women and girls who feel unheard or overlooked. I aim to inspire self-belief, encourage people to step forward, and stand confidently for themselves. I also plan to collaborate with NGOs that support senior citizens and promote awareness around fitness and nutrition within families. This crown is not mine alone—it represents every woman who dares to believe in herself.

Why have you participated in Mrs India International Queen?

I chose to participate in Mrs India International Queen because I believe in a purpose that goes far beyond the crown. This platform celebrates not only inner beauty, but also emotional depth and intellectual strength. As a woman, a wife, and a changemaker, I wanted to push my boundaries, share my story, and inspire others to follow their passion. This pageant is more than a competition—it’s a journey of personal growth, leadership, and meaningful impact. I stand here for every woman who believes that her dreams don’t end with marriage—they truly begin.
