As the world is moving towards empowering women and it continues to gain momentum, however some countries are still struggling with underdevelopment, lack of education, and various taboos and restrictions against women. A video that has gone viral features Roma Michael, a Pakistani Christian, walking the ramp at the Miss World Grand in a bikini. This video has sparked significant reactions online, particularly because wearing bikinis and revealing clothing remains a taboo in Pakistan.
Roma Michael is a professional model from Lahore, Pakistan, who holds a BTech degree from the University of South Asia. She has gained significant recognition as a social media influencer and content creator, amassing over 75.7k followers.
