The Ex- Miss Universe Sushmita Sen had nearly withdrawn herself from the ‘Miss India Contest’ after she heard that Aishwarya Rai was also participating in it. However, after lots of convincing Sushmita Sen finally agreed to appear in the contest.
However, amazingly, Sushmita won the the title of ‘Femina Miss India’ beating Aishwarya Rai and Diya Mirza, who were the runner up the second runner up. Held in Manila, Philippines in 1994, Sushmita represented India at the age of eighteen and became the first Indian woman to become Miss Universe.
Aishwarya and Diya too, set the whole world praise for Indian beauty as they too won the title of Miss World and Miss Asia Pacific respectively. That was the first and only time in our history that Indian girls bagged all the three awards to themselves in that year.
