Hyderabad, the city of pearls and rich heritage, is abuzz with excitement as it hosts the 72nd Miss World competition! After last year's event in Mumbai, the spotlight is now on Telangana's capital, where the grand finale is set to take place on May 31st. The top 40 contestants, including India's very own Nandini Gupta, have already showcased their charm and wit in the interview round held on May 29th and 30th. With India's Manushi Chillar winning the title in 2017, expectations are high for Nandini, a talented representative from Rajasthan. If she wins, Nandini will not only bask in glory but also don a breathtaking crown studded with 1770 sparkling diamonds!
The coveted Miss World crown is a masterpiece! Adorned with 1770 small diamonds, a stunning 175.49-carat sapphire, and 18-carat white gold, this crown is valued at approximately Rs 3 crore.

But the crown is just the beginning, the winner of Miss World 2025 will also take home a prize of Rs 1.15 crore, a significant increase from previous years. Yet, according to CEO Julia Morley, the true value lies not in the prize money but in the opportunity to travel the world and make a meaningful impact through humanitarian projects.
