Dressed in a pink dress for her ramp walk, she said via the voiceover, “This pageant has been a dream, more than mine, it is my mother’s. She could not make it, so I am here to fulfil her dream today.”
“It has been long since India has won an international crown, Miss World or Miss Universe. I think I can get it back,” Pannu can be heard further in the clip, which also sees the divas, Zeenat Aman and Tabu, probably as the judges.
