Rachel Gupta Becomes India's First 'Miss Grand International’

Rachel Gupta was crowned as 'Miss Grand International,' making her the first Indian to win the prestigious title. The victory has sparked nationwide celebrations, with many hailing Gupta as an inspirational figure for aspiring beauty queens in the country.

 

Rachel Gupta, hailing from Jalandhar, stunned the audience and judges alike with her charismatic presence, poise, and sharp intellect. She competed with over 70 contestants from around the world at the grand finale in Bangkok, Thailand. Her victory came after a series of rigorous rounds, including talent, swimwear, evening gown, and the much-anticipated question-and-answer segment. Gupta’s articulate and heartfelt answers in the final round set her apart, reinforcing her status as a strong voice on international platforms.

 

Among the top five candidates, which included Brazil, the Philippines, Myanmar, and France, Rachel stood out on the night of the coronation in Bangkok, Thailand. She ultimately defeated CJ Opiaza of the Philippines to win the title of Miss Grand International.

 

Despite only being in her early twenties, Rachel Gupta is already posing a serious threat to long-time actress and model Lara Dutta, who holds the record for having won "the most global pageant crowns won by an Indian." With her most recent accomplishment as Miss Grand International 2024, Rachel and Lara Dutta are matched for the most coveted title with two major victories. Rachel now holds two major titles: "Miss Grand International 2024" and "Miss Super Talent of the World 2022."

 

With this victory, Rachel Gupta is set to embark on an exciting journey as the reigning Miss Grand International. Her duties will include attending global events, spreading messages of peace, and engaging in charity initiatives worldwide. Additionally, she plans to use her platform to further her advocacy for mental health and children’s rights. This achievement also opens doors for future beauty aspirants from India, providing a renewed motivation to pursue their dreams on international stages. Rachel Gupta has not only brought the title home but has also made history, and her win will remain a beacon of hope and inspiration for generations to come.
