71st Miss World: Miss India Sini Shetty says the pressure is real, social media doesn't let you...

Speaking exclusively with editorji, Miss India World Sini Shetty said, "Social media doesn't let you show vulnerability."

When asked about what message she would give to kids who aspire to reach their goals, she also said that the pressure is real but one should trust themselves.

Don't over criticise yourself and just remember that sky is the limit

She added, "Trust in yourself. Everyone has their struggle. You know, everyone's destiny is planned. So, if you have your direction if you and your head in the game straight, just look forward. Do not look down on yourself. Don't over criticise yourself and just remember that sky is the limit."

Speaking about her journey from being a dance tutor to now a beauty queen, Shetty said, "I started teaching dance when I was 20 that's when I realised that my purpose and my vision and my content comes a lot more from helping others and inspiring other people as well. Being a dance tutor, shaping young minds, I think that was the most satisfying thing that I ever did."

"And when Miss India came and I studied Miss India and I understood, I think pageantry was love at first sight." Shetty added.

Shetty, who is from Karnataka has a background in Finance and Accounting. She is skilled in Bharatnatyam and also won the title of Miss India Karnataka.
