Manika Vishwakarma triumphed at the Miss Universe India 2025 competition held in Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, and adorned her head with this prestigious crown. Prior to this, Manika had won the title of Miss Universe Rajasthan in 2024.
Jaipur: India is once again preparing to showcase its beauty and talent on the international stage. This time, the crown of Miss Universe India 2025 has been bestowed upon Manika Vishwakarma, the daughter of Rajasthan. In this grand competition held in Jaipur, she surpassed all the participants to achieve victory. Manika will now represent India at the 74th Miss Universe competition to be held in Thailand.
The Journey from Rajasthan to the World Stage
Manika Vishwakarma is originally from Ganganagar, Rajasthan. For the past few years, she has been living in Delhi, focusing on her modeling career and preparing for international beauty pageants. In 2024, she won the title of Miss Universe Rajasthan, and now she has achieved a new milestone by winning at the national level.
When the crown was placed on her head on the stage of this grand event held in Jaipur, the entire hall echoed with applause. Sharing this emotional moment, Manika said, "More than a struggle, it has been a journey of preparation. My journey started in Ganganagar and progressed in Delhi. There, I refined myself and prepared intensely for the competition. We have to awaken confidence and courage within ourselves. Whatever I am today, my mentors and family have made a significant contribution. This title is not just an achievement of one year, but a lifelong lesson and responsibility."
Preparation for the Competition in Delhi
Manika stated that Delhi provided her with better opportunities and gave a new direction to her career. While living here, she not only worked on her ramp walk and communication skills but also focused on every aspect of personal development. She said that this competition assesses not only beauty but also personality and confidence.
Winning the title of Miss Universe India is considered a life-changing opportunity for any model or beauty queen. It not only provides national recognition but also gives the winner the opportunity to represent the country on the world stage. Manika Vishwakarma will now represent India at the 74th Miss Universe competition to be held in Thailand, which is scheduled to take place later this year.
The Journey of Miss Universe India
India has made its mark on the international stage many times before. Lara Dutta, Sushmita Sen, and recently Harnaaz Sandhu have given the country a moment of pride by winning the title of Miss Universe. Now, all eyes will be on Manika Vishwakarma to see if she can bring this title to India once again. Manika believes that a beauty pageant is not just a beauty competition but an experience of life.
She said, "A beauty contest is not just a field, it is a world in itself, which builds a person's character. This platform teaches us responsibility, self-discipline, and confidence. This victory is not just a moment but a long journey, which will continue to inspire me."
