Miss India World Sini Shetty spoke to editorji
Miss India World Sini Shetty spoke to editorji ahead of the 71st Miss World pageant that’s going to begin on 18th of February in New Delhi. From her skincare secrets to her inspiration in life, Shetty shared how she has prepared for one of the biggest beauty events in the world.
Do you feel extra pressure as this year India is hosting the Miss World pageant?
I don't feel any pressure because at the end of the day, I am being a host and hospitality is something that comes naturally to Indians. India itself stands for its hospitality standards and I also belong to a hospitality. You know, my parents are from the hospitality industry, learned it through all my life since a child.
Audience expects you beauty contestents to look a certain way or do certain things. So what is your opinion of it?
I do agree with the pressure because we are part of a generation where we are constantly being watched and watching others on social media is over whelming too. The drawback of social media is that you understand that everything is happy, happy and life is picture perfect.
You need to understand that there's always something to life that you have to work on and if it's not happening right now, it's OK. Chill down. Life is beautiful ahead. If you have a kind heart, soul, heart. So, if you have a kind soul and if you're working hard towards your journey, nothing's gonna stop you.

Tell us a bit about your finale costume
Follow my journey on www dot Miss india.com. There will be a lot of revelations there about my wardrobe, but just to give you a little hint about my gown they are one of my favorite designers. They are, they are spectacular at what they do.
They have been in the industry for the longest time and they are known for their intricate designs for the creative work that they do for the display of creativeness on the materials, on the clothes that makes you look like a million bucks.
I can assure you that it is a beautiful gown. I cannot wait for all of you all to see it. And yes, I'm super excited to wear it and just be at that stage.
What’s the secret behind your glowing skin and fitness?
I feel that glow comes with excitement for me and every day is exciting. I believe in the motto that every day, every time you go back to a bed, you need to have that excitement and rise up again with the excitement for the next day. And that's what keeps me glowing.
Food is something that keeps me happy and fit. I do believe that eating in moderation is necessary. But at the same time eating and keeping your heart happy is also important. So for me home food, my staple diet ever since I was eating as a kid and not going to extreme crazy diets is something that is keeping me fit sane and happy.
What’s your skincare routine?
Well, I do believe that three things are very important for your skin. Also, someone who wears makeup on daily basis, cleansing your skin with the makeup remover and then using a face wash that is, you know, suitable for your skin moisturizing it and sunscreen when you head out, I think these three things are very important. Multan Miti is something that is a quick fix for everything. The way your skin glows after one use, you'll be stunned.
What do you do for your mental health?
the first thing that I am excited about this journey and this is something that comes from the heart. So nothing, nothing in the world pulls me down. But at the same time, I do believe that there is a lot of effort that goes into it. So, meditation, yoga and dance is my passion.
Dancing like for an hour just being with yourself being in the moment breathing something that takes you a long way, you know. I'm sure a lot of people face a situation where you have that feeling of anxiety, a feeling of anxiousness inside yourself. Breathing just takes a long way, breathing in and out and being in the moment, being focused and you're good to go.
Who has been your role model and inspiration since your childhood?
Definitely my parents because you know, they come from a small town in Mangalore and they have shifted to the city of Mumbai and they built their life here in the hospitality industry. They have given us a sound like they have given us an amazing life. They've provided us with everything that is necessary. I'm sure, you know, parents don't show it to their kids the struggle that they go through.
I know that I have to be where my parents are and to do better so that they are proud of me.
