Big winners all, reunited (left-to-right): Miss Universe 1994 Sushmita Sen, Miss World 2000 Priyanka Chopra, Miss Universe 2000 Lara Dutta, Miss World 1998 Yukta Mookhey, Miss Asia-Pacific 2000 Diya Mirza, Miss World 1997 Diana Hayden and Miss World 1994 Aishwarya Rai
From 2001 onwards, everything seemed to be bleak up until Nicole Faria nailed Miss Earth 2010 in Vietnam and Asha Bhat was declared Miss Supranational last year in Poland. It would also be interesting to note that India has never won Miss International with their latest (and highest) triumph being last 2003 when Shonali Nagrani placed 1st Runner-Up to Goizeder Azua of Venezuela.
Do watch now an old clip showing the reunion of Miss India winners last 2000 from where the photos above were taken from.

@scorg, i agree with you. I honestly think Sushmita was ok, I remember if theres anyone who really deserve that crown that was held here was Venezuela, she was so elegant with a hint of sexiness.
Pinakamaganda si Aish at mas sumikat sya bilang artista sa Bollywood.
The so-called golden age of Indian beauty queens is the same decade of India’s take-off to industrialisation, led by its IT, telecoms, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology industries. In that decade, India’s economy propelled to the 9th spot among the world’s top industrialised economies. Coincidence? Or, is this another case of the so-called politics of beauty?
Puro major titles..galing!
Shushmita, Yukta and Aishwarya are clear standouts based on beauty… 😀
