Urvashi Rautela, a familiar face in the public eye for over a decade, recently shared a surprising revelation with her 70 million Instagram followers. She disclosed an incident involving former Miss Universe Sushmita Sen, revealing the challenges she faced on her path to success.
Setback in 2012:
In 2012, Urvashi participated in the ‘I Am She–Miss Universe India’ pageant, managed by Sushmita Sen’s company. Despite winning the title, Urvashi’s victory was short-lived as she was disqualified for being under 18. Unaware of her age discrepancy, she found herself 24 days shy of the age limit set by the Miss Universe organization, then co-owned by Donald Trump.
Sushmita Sen’s Directive:
Recalling the difficult moment, Urvashi revealed that Sushmita Sen personally instructed her to relinquish her crown. Feeling disheartened, Urvashi questioned the fairness of the age limit rule. Despite the setback, she resolved to pursue her dreams in the entertainment industry.
Redemption in 2015:
Undeterred by the setback, Urvashi Rautela re-entered the Miss Universe India pageant in 2015, this time under the management of Miss Diva (by Femina Miss India). Despite facing skepticism from her peers, who doubted her decision to re-enter the competition, Urvashi remained resolute. She faced challenges and criticism, with some questioning her decision to participate again. However, her determination prevailed, and she emerged victorious, becoming the only contestant to win the Miss Universe India title twice.
Urvashi Rautela’s journey is a testament to resilience and determination in the face of adversity. Despite encountering setbacks and facing criticism, she remained steadfast in her pursuit of success. Her story serves as inspiration for aspiring individuals, highlighting the importance of perseverance and self-belief in overcoming obstacles and achieving one’s goals.
