    A Crown That Changed Everything

    Taking to her social media handles, Sushmita shared nostalgic photos from the crowning moment in Manila. Alongside the pictures, she penned a powerful note: “21st May 1994 #Manila A historical win that introduced an 18yr old Indian girl to the Universe!!! Opening up a world of possibilities, highlighting the strength of hope, the power of inclusion, the generosity of love…”

    She continued by thanking her parents and expressing pride in representing her country on a global stage. “Happy 31st Anniversary of India’s first ever victory at Miss Universe!!! To have the honour of representing my country, I will proudly cherish forever!” Sen also extended gratitude to her friends in the Philippines and former Miss Colombia Carolina Gómez, her runner-up, writing: “Happy 31st also to my loved ones in the #Philippines & to you my darling @carogomezfilm #thinkingofyouall & #celebratingyou.”

    The post received an emotional response from fans and friends alike. Actress Dia Mirza commented, “Will never ever forget what you made me feel and believe. Love you!” Fans also praised her enduring charm and legacy, with one writing: “Congratulations dear Sush on completing 31 years of Miss Universe. Your beauty has increased day by day, and you have made us proud.”

    While many remember Sushmita’s win, not everyone recalls how close the competition was. The final round saw a tie-breaker between Sushmita and Aishwarya Rai, who went on to win Miss World the same year.
