Our panel of awe-inspiring judges included veterans of the glamour industry. Jacqueline Fernandes was a silhouette of angelic splendor, while Malaika Arora Khan made heads turn in haute couture making; Miss Universe Canada Sahar Biniaz’s brilliant beauty sent sighs rolling around her as she stepped on to the red carpet, and the cheer from the crowd on Kunal Kapoor’s arrival was something to reckon. Atul Kasbekar, the man behind the fashion lens has captured many a diva behind the scenes, but he proved to be quite a style example himself dressed in denim chic. Zeenat Aman and Raveena Tandon dressed in elegant Indian wear displayed a classic aura as they spoke gracefully to all the media personnel desperate to interview them.

The Miss Diva pageant began with upbeat popular commercial tunes, perfectly complementing the girls and their ‘LBDs’ or Little Black Dresses. Amidst the show, our Area General Manager Mr. Anuraag Bhatnagar had the opportunity to crown Sonika Chauhan the Westin Miss Popular title and accompany her on a walk down the runway, leaving us all amazed at his charismatic presence on the ramp. The night then suavely shifted in to the much awaited swimwear round where a selection of perfect physiques stormed the runway.


The final round was a bit of shimmer, shine and total sparkle as Mandira Wirk’s masterpieces exemplified each contestant’s beauty even further as they took their final walks down the runway. The girls displayed the perfect balance of beauty and brains soon after as they entered the question answer round and stunned the judges and the audiences with their powerful answers.


The moment of glory finally arrived when the winner of the pageant was announced. And just when all hearts stood still and breathes remained paused, it was declared that Manasi Moghe would be Miss Diva 2013 and be representing the entire Indian nation internationally at The Miss Universe 2013 pageant.
