• A Brief about yourself and how you describe your own Personality and Persona ?

I am an enterprising and dynamic individual who leads with confidence, grace, and deep empathy. I thrive on building meaningful connections, uplifting others, and inspiring them to reach their full potential. As a marketing and growth strategist, I blend creativity with precision to drive impact and transformation. Beyond my professional journey, I am passionate about financial literacy and personal development, empowering individuals—especially women—to create wealth and lead with confidence. While I excel in my career, I also cherish my role as a wife and mother to my two wonderful boys, Anitej and Yash. Balancing work and family within my joint family, I embrace every role with love, resilience, and joy. With a fun-loving spirit and a heart for positive change, I believe true beauty lies in making a difference and leaving a lasting impact on others.

• Your Achievements that make you feel High?

One of my most fulfilling achievements has been the launch of my NGO, SAVE A PIND, dedicated to uplifting village schools. We adopted a school, built a playground for junior and middle school children, and hired a kho-kho coach. Our team has already won at the district level and is now preparing for the state championship. Beyond sports, I initiated a Big Brother, Big Sister mentorship program, connecting high school students with established professionals. This initiative provides guidance, support, and a positive influence, steering young minds away from harmful paths and toward a future filled with opportunities.

• Define True Beauty ?

I live my life by a quote “ The kindnedd you put out in the world always has a way to come back to you “ To me, true beauty is not just about appearance; it’s a reflection of one’s kindness, confidence, and the positive impact they create in the world of people living around us . It is about having a compassionate heart, an inspiring spirit, and the grace to uplift others. When we nurture our minds, spread love, and empower those around us, our inner radiance naturally reflects on the outside. True beauty is inside-out—it’s the light we carry within that makes the world a more beautiful place.

• What makes a Complete healthy and happy family for you ?

A complete, healthy, and happy family is built on love, support, and shared values. For me, family extends beyond just my husband, Sarv, and our two wonderful boys, Anitej and Yash. It includes my joint family, where we cherish traditions and stand by one another—my in-laws, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and their two sons. My work family is just as important, as we grow and succeed together. And beyond that, I find joy in giving back to society, building meaningful connections, and making a positive impact. True happiness comes from togetherness, mutual respect, and uplifting each other.

• What is your favourite idea of holidaying ?

My favorite idea of holidaying is a beach vacation with my husband, where we disconnect from the world—no cell phones, just pure presence. While our kids enjoy time with their nani, I take this opportunity to truly reconnect with my husband and nurture our bond. For me, a perfect getaway is about meditation, aligning my mind, body, and soul, and embracing the beauty of the moment. I love indulging in local delicacies and drinks, exploring new places, and immersing myself in the culture, history, and people—because every journey is an experience that enriches the soul.

• Why are you participating in Mrs India Queen of Substance ?

Participating in Mrs. India Queen of Substance is a dream come true for me. Since the age of 10, I have been passionate about beauty pageants and dreamed of representing India globally. However, I was not allowed to enter Miss India, and that dream remained unfulfilled—until now. This pageant is more than just a competition; it is a platform to showcase talent, beauty, and confidence. Walking on stage, performing a skill, and answering complex questions on the spot can be intimidating, but I see it as an opportunity to face fears, grow as an individual, and inspire others. For me, this journey is about celebrating womanhood, embracing challenges, and proving that dreams have no expiration date.

• What bothers you the most about what is happening in the country today ?

What bothers me the most about our country today is the increasing drug use among children, the addiction to short-form content, and the rising joblessness among the youth. With easy access to addictive substances and mindless entertainment, many young minds are losing their focus, productivity, and ambition. Instead of building meaningful careers, they are getting trapped in distractions that hinder their growth. However, I strongly believe in solutions. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been taking significant steps to eradicate unemployment through skill development programs, entrepreneurship initiatives, and job creation opportunities. It is our responsibility to support and contribute to these efforts by guiding the youth, promoting awareness, and creating avenues for a brighter future.

• The quote or saying that encourages you ?

The quote that encourages me the most is "Sarbat da Bhala", a profound Sikh principle that means “Welfare of all”. My nani always instilled this value in me, reminding me that true success lies not just in personal achievements but in uplifting others. This saying inspires me to work towards the greater good, whether through my NGO, mentorship programs, or professional journey. It reinforces my belief that when we contribute to society selflessly, we create a ripple effect of positivity, growth, and lasting impact.

• What is true “Sportsmanship” for you ?

For me, true sportsmanship is about integrity, resilience, and the spirit of uplifting others. It is not just about winning but about giving your best, learning from failures, and supporting those around you. Through my NGO, SAVE A PIND, I have seen firsthandhow sports can transform lives. We built a playground for village children, hired a kho-kho coach, and now our team is competing at the state level. True sportsmanship teaches discipline, teamwork, and perseverance—values that extend far beyond the field. It’s about competing with grace, celebrating others ’ success, and constantly striving to become a better version of yourself.

• If you were selected as a charity Ambassador what Value addition would you like to make for our society and how ?

If selected as a Charity Ambassador, I would leverage my extensive sales and marketing expertise to drive initiatives that uplift both women and children. I am deeply passionate about creating opportunities for rural women, I will take further the great initiative by Mrs India Queen of Substance of promoting rural womens handcrafted products in hotel shops, enabling them to earn a sustainable livelihood. Additionally, I would focus on empowering kids through educational and skill- development programs, fostering a brighter future for our communities. By combining my professional experience with my commitment to social impact, I aim to build bridges between communities, drive economic independence, and inspire lasting change for a more inclusive and prosperous society.
