Kalpana Shukla’s journey at the ‘Mrs Universe’ pageant is truly an inspiration for many married women. After a long 46-year wait, she made history by becoming the first runner-up and winning the prestigious ‘Best National Costume Award’. It’s a moment of immense pride for India. The Grand Finale of the Mrs. Universe Pageant 2023 took place on October 8th in Manila, Philippines, where Kalpana triumphantly secured the first-runner up position in a tough competition of 91 participants.
Behind this remarkable success stands Kalpana’s National Director, Mrs. Urmi Boruah, who tirelessly worked day and night to ensure Kalpana’s brilliance shone through in the Pageant.
The dedicated team left no stone unturned in preparing for the Pageant’s critical scoring areas. The forum, a pinnacle event, required all participants to address the pressing issue of domestic violence. Kalpana’s presentation, titled ‘Break the Silence,’ was executed flawlessly, leaving a lasting impact.
Kalpana’s journey shows that beauty goes beyond appearances, using her platform to advocate for a brighter future. We eagerly await her impactful performance and wish her the best as she represents India with grace and purpose.
