The glittering crown of Miss Universe India 2024 was placed upon the head of 19-year-old Rhea Singha on Sunday in Jaipur. The crowning ceremony, held amidst a flurry of excitement and anticipation, was presided over by none other than Urvashi Rautela, the reigning Miss Universe India in 2015.
A panel of esteemed judges, including Rautela, Nikhil Anand, Vietnamese celebrity Nguyen Quynh, fashion photographer Rian Fernandes, and entrepreneur Rajeev Shrivastava, had the challenging task of selecting the winner from a field of talented and beautiful contestants.
Hailing from Gujarat, Rhea Singha is a rising star in the world of modeling and a passionate aspiring entrepreneur. She is also a fitness enthusiast and serves as the Ambassador at Large of GLS University, according to Indian Express. This young woman’s accomplishments extend beyond the runway, as she is a TEDx speaker, a supermodel, and has even graced the screen in several acting projects.
Singha’s victory was met with overwhelming joy and pride. In a video shared by the Miss Universe India organization, she can be seen holding hands with another contender in the final moments before the announcement. Upon her win, Urvashi Rautela approached Rhea and embraced her before crowning her as the new Miss Universe India. The video, which has amassed over 703K views and 38.4K likes in just 9 hours, captures the essence of this momentous occasion.
Rhea Singha will now embark on a journey to represent India at the global Miss Universe 2024 pageant, set to be held in Mexico within the next few months. She expressed her gratitude and inspiration, stating to ANI, “Today I won the title of Miss Universe India 2024. I am so thankful. I have done so much work to get to this level where I can consider myself worthy enough for this crown. I am so inspired by the previous winners.”
The Miss Universe India competition is a prestigious platform that launches aspiring young women onto the global stage. Last year, Shweta Sharda claimed the title and went on to represent India at the international competition, achieving a commendable top 20 placement. Rhea Singha now carries the torch, poised to make her mark on the world stage with her grace, intelligence, and unwavering determination.
