Aishwarya Rai is one of the most gorgeous women in the world, and her Miss World win is proof of the same. However, she lost the Femina Miss India 1994 title to Sushmita Sen. It was certain to everyone that Aishwarya would win the Miss India pageant as she was a supermodel. However, it was Sushmita Sen who got the Miss India crown. But do you know a tragic incident on the stage led Aishwarya to lose the contest?
Why did Aishwarya Rai lose the Miss India title?
Despite charming the judges, Aishwarya Rai lost the Miss India title to Sushmita Sen, and ad guru, Prahlad Kakkar, reveals the reason behind it in a recent interview with ANI. Calling it a tough competition, he recalled:
“It was a tough competition. Both of them were stunning. But Aishwarya fell. Finally, there was a question-and-answer round, which was an extra round because they couldn’t make up their minds. Sushmita’s answer was far more confident and composed than Aishwarya’s, and she won the last round. It was touch and go.”
