SAN FRANCISCO: Current Miss India USA Ayushka Singh Gharib was placed in the top three at the Miss Asian America Pageant held on August 11 at the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre in SF, CA. She was awarded the title of Miss Asian 2nd Princess.
The pageant consisted of five segments. The personal interview, traditional wear, swim wear, evening gown, question and answer and the most challenging of all, the platform speech round.
Ayushka spoke on global warming and ended her speech with, "You must be the change you wish to see in the world," a powerful quote by Mahatma Gandhi.
Ayushka has not only encouraged young women to take part in such events as it helps bridge the cultural gaps but has also promoted goodwill amongst the youth.
Ayushka said she was grateful to the Frontier Heritage and Prema Sai Hotels for their unconditional support and sponsorship.
