Tell us something about yourself.

I would describe myself as a learner and a go-getter, my confidence adds that extra glitter to it. I experiment quite a lot and explore myself so I look forward to analyse and pounce on the maximum opportunities to flourish. I believe that everything that comes our way, good or bad, teaches us something and we can only move on if we focus on the positive side of everything which will, in turn, be the stepping stone of our success.

 

 

What inclined you towards modelling? and are you looking forward to it as a full-time profession?

I am already into a fashion field being a fashion designing student, so I was curious about modelling which is why I tried once in a fashion show, walked the ramp and realised that modelling is an art and not just anyone’s cup of tea. This kind of challenged me and so I decided to go for it. About full-time profession, honestly speaking, I haven’t given it a thought yet… As I said I experiment everything. I give my 100% in whatever I take up. I will go with what is best for me and my family.

 

What was your reaction when you came to know that you were selected for Neutral View Mr & Ms Goa 2018?

Well, a new adventure starts now for me!!”  Yes, I was happy, I was excited. More and more excited about what would come next. I am still excited.

 

Have you participated in pageants before this?

No, I haven’t.

 

 

How important winning this pageant is for you?

This pageant is very important for me because this is worthy of determining where I would end up in a fashion industry, and of course, there is a mega chance of getting a direct entry into the Rubaru Miss India Elite contest. This pageant will also boost up my confidence to an amazing level and I will grow inside-out as a skilled, talented model. So winning this pageant is damn really important!

 

 

If you win Neutral View Miss Goa you will get a direct entry to Rubaru Miss India Elite, how are you preparing yourself?

I am gathering every bit of knowledge and confidence I can, improving my skills and personality. This pageant will definitely be a booster for me.

 

Are you feeling any pressure?

There isn’t any pressure as such but I am a little bit nervous and its quite healthy, I have learned through experiences that being nervous is a lot better than being overconfident.

 

Your biggest support in life

Always and always my MOM.

 

Any quote or saying that has a profound impact on you?

“He who risks and fails can be forgiven…He who never risks and never fails is a failure in his whole being.” ~Paul Johannes Tillich

 

Any message for your friends and well-wishers

Yes, I want to tell them I am lucky to have them, my pillars of strength, my support systems. I want to thank them for always being there…and I won’t let them down.
