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

Myself in few words: I am a person with eyes of a young girl that don’t stop dreaming, heart of a woman that doesn’t stop loving, persona of a lady that doesn’t stop astonishing and brain of a professional that doesn’t stop learning.

• Your Achievements that make you feel high.

Academic world: I have always been a topper in academics. International and national medals, trophies, scholarships, merits and distinctions boosted my moral to work even harder. I did my Bachelors in Dentistry from India and Masters in Endodontics from United Kingdom. Professional Career: I am a doctor with my clinics in India and United Kingdom, a profession which is my soul. Contribution to Society: I believe that I have received a lot and now its time to give back. • I am associated with an NGO “ARNI” where we as a group of skilled professional motivateand educate children from lower socio-economic groups. Educational camps are organized in slum areas. • We also conduct tree plantation camps to save our environment. • I organize “Free Dental” Camps at my private clinic for people who otherwise cannot afford expensive treatments.

• What makes a complete, healthy and happy family for you?

According to me a complete, happy and healthy family is where the members of the family love, support and respect each other and work together to achieve and enjoy the essence of happiness.

• What is your favourite Idea of Holidaying?

After travelling well across with different specialties of different places, I think a perfect holiday is one where you are with your loved ones and unwind; the place is immaterial.

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

My idea to participate in this pageant is that through this platform I can increase my active participation towards community service. The title ”Queen of Substance” sounds like my inner voice, as I don’t only want to be a Beauty Queen but Beauty with a Cause-Substance.

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

I am most bothered by the fact that the dence between rich and poor is way too much. This financial inequality in the society is the lead to many problems and the best solution I see to most problems is “Education”.

A famous quote of William Longgood inspires me a lot, “ Dreams and dedication are a powerful combination”.

Participating in any competition with urge to learn, efforts to win and acceptance of failure with the will to improve.

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

I always dream of a world where no one is dependent for basics needs, so my efforts would be towards making people self dependent and creating more opportunities for the same; may it be social, physical or financial dependence.
