Manasvi Mamgai, (22, center) was crowned Femina Miss India-World 2010 during an event held on April 30th. Manasvi, a former Miss Tourism International, will compete in Miss World. Nicole Faria (R) won the FMI-Earth title, and Neha Hinge (L) was crowned FMI-International.
Femina Miss India 2010
The winners of the country’s biggest beauty pageant were announced before a select gathering in Mumbai on Friday.
The coveted title of Pantaloons Femina Miss India (PFMI) World 2010 went to Andheri girl Manasvi Mamgai (center). PFMI International 2010 was Neha Hinge from Pune. Bangalore girl Nicole Faria was crowned PFMI Earth 2010.
Moving indoors from the summer heat, the open-air pageant shifted to the airconditioned environs of the National Centre for Performing Arts (NCPA).
The pageant formalised its tie-up with the Hindi film industry, often the final destination of aspiring beauty queens. Film-makers Madhur Bhandarkar and Vipul Amrutlal Shah shortlisted six finalists, of whom two lucky girls will be crowned Pantaloons Femina Miss India 2010 Bollywood Diva. Each will feature in a film by these directors. However, the wait for these winners will take just a while longer — the announcement will be made on May 16.
Of the 18 finalists, most were from the metro cities — six from Mumbai and five from New Delhi—but the odd participant from Jammu, Dewas and Raipur did leave a mark as well.
True to tradition the successors were crowned by the previous years’ winners. Doing the honours was PFMI World 2009 Pooja Chopra, PFMI Earth 2009 Shriya Kishore and 2002 winner, actor Neha Dhupia. Ekta Choudhary, PFMI Universe 2009, was also present. PFMI 2008 World and Miss World 2008 first runner-up Parvathy Omanakuttan felicitated Dr Sonal Shah of the Richfeel Group for its 10-year association with the Miss India pageant.
