Discovered in the Disco
(Sushmita Sen's story, India's first Miss Universe)


Image


Once a girl went to a disco club (fter urging a lot to her father) with a friend. While dancing in the disco, a man came close to her and said, "You know, you are very beautiful". Feeling a bit embarrassed, she went close to her friend and asked him to help. The man again came close and said. "You should participate in Miss India contest".

Then both the girl and her friend thought that the man was "not ok". When the man realized that the girl was not taking him seriously, he finally said showing her a card, "I'm Ranjan Bakshi, from "The Times of India" newspaper; please meet me tomorrow in my office". This time she grabbed the card giving a charming smile and said, "Ya’ sure, I'll come".

Next day she went to the office and met Mr. Ranjan Bakshi. He told her that 25 contestants had taken back their names from Miss India contest. Then she asked why it was so. Then he replied that Aishwarya Rai was taking part. The girl suddenly took back her form and said, "I also don't want to participate".

Sushmita Sen and Aishwarya Rai, both won theirs respective competitions, Miss Universe and Miss World


When she returned home, her mother scolded her on what she had done. Her mother told her that it wasn't a good thing to lose without first even trying. Her mother exclaimed "even if you think you can lose from the most beautiful girl, then lose from HER! What is the use of being defeated by someone else?" The girl then realized her mistake and went again to the office the next day and filled the entry form in the last minute.

After that, the whole world knows what happened, the girl won Miss India and then conquered the Miss Universe 1994 title. The girl was Sushmita Sen, first Miss Universe and the star of India. Sushmita was born on 19th November 1975 in Hyderabad, India but grew up in Delhi. After winning Miss India, this 5'8 tall girl went to Manila, Philippines to compete in Miss Universe.

There, she mesmerized the judges with her personality and spellbinding depths of her answers and this lead her way to the Miss Universe 1994 crown.

After reigning for one year of her Miss Universe, she entered the film industry, as the tradition of most of the beauty queens. Interestingly, in one of her movies, Sushmita played a role of Miss Universe! Sushmita's first award in the film industry was for "Best supporting role". After giving many hits and flops, she became one of the most important part of Bollywood (film industry of India).

Sushmita loves children and she adopted a girl and named her Renee.
Sushmita's father is a retired Indian Air Force officer, her mother Subhra Sen worked as a fashion artist and jewelry designer.

She has one brother Rajeev Sen and a sister Neelam Sen. Sushmita, at present, lives in Mumbai with her beautiful daughter. Sushmita being the first Miss Universe of India is very close to heart of Indians and will be their loved one forever.

Looking at Ashwariya rai beauty many girls withdraw back from femina whereas Susmita sen was one who participated and won
She indeed is beautiful inside and out.
many young generation esp girls in INDIA consider her as idol
Its because of inner beauty and adoption of girls.
In 2010 she adopted second girl name "Alisah"
When she take mike no one can stop her she is just so depth in her speaking skills
Anyways not many indians know she is running I AM SHE like =/ =/

Was Aishwarya Rai already famous at that time that's why many girls backed out when they found out that she's joining Miss India?

Aish had taken the modelling scene before joining miss India. During miss india, aishwarya and sushmita were tie. it's for the first time in miss india history.The rules state, incase of a tie, the final round is held AGAIN, and judges rescore the answers of the contestants. On the second occasion, Sushmita gave a shaky answer, but still impressed the judges enough to score an average of 9.41 to Aishwarya's 9.39.

Sushmita & Brother Rajeev Sen at Wills India Fashion Week on 25th Oct 2009.
I find her bro hot.When I first saw her bro on tv during Sush's coronation ball right after winning Miss Universe,I found him skinny and ugly then.One of the ugliest teenage boys I saw.lol.Now he is mmmmm.

Aishwarya's case in Femina Miss India 1994 could be compared to former Miss Philippines World Ruffa Gutierrez walkout issue of more than 30 girl applicants in Bb Pilipinas 1993.

Majority of pageant critics firing scathingly remarks and unleashing vilest of comments to some candidates,ironically, are not even beautiful themselves aesthetically and worst characterwise.

yeah .In 1993 Ashwariya rai gained lot of publicity when she did pepsi ad with bollywood superstar amir khan.
Her eyes and beauty was talk of town.so when many come to know that ash was participating they back out.
Here is ashwariya in pepsi ad (1993) at 0.41 and after that she won femina Miss India World title.

This is a very interesting question!
I think that the destiny was just meant to be! What is more interesting that Sush never gave up and she was strong enough to take over and made
a history for herself being the first Indian women winning Miss Universe. :-*
