Harnaaz Sandhu responded to those who said she won Miss Universe 2021 solely because of her “pretty face.” She went on to say that a lot of effort had gone into it.
Miss Universe 2021, a model actor from Chandigarh, was crowned earlier this month. After 21 years, she was able to reclaim the throne. Lara Dutta had won the title in 2000.
Speaking with Mid-Day, Harnaaz said, “There are a lot of people who say [I] won because [I] have a pretty face. But I know the amount of effort that went behind it. Instead of indulging in arguments, I’d rather work hard to make them realize [my worth]. This is the stereotype that I want to break. This [win] is a lot like an Olympic [win]. When we appreciate a sportsperson who represents the country, why can’t we [appreciate] beauty pageant winners? However, mindsets are changing, and I am happy to be breaking stereotypes already.”
Harnaaz has also expressed her wish to pursue acting and ‘break stereotype’ in the film industry as well. “I don’t want to be a normal actress. I want to be one of those who are very influential, and who break stereotypes by choosing strong characters, being wise, and inspirational,” she added.
