It was like ‘haw.’ Back then everything was ‘haww’ to the extent that my Maa and Baba (mom and dad) had to sit me down and say, ‘There is a lot riding on your shoulders and can you just try to curb a little bit of what you’re saying. Why use the word ‘sex’ at 18 in an interview? Shobhaa De’s writing badly about you.
’” 'In an interview, I brought up the word sex on purpose' She continued, "And I remember her name coming up specifically, you know, Bengali. Bengalis are considered intellectual. So, it was the intellectual articles that were bothering and not the gossip ones.
I was like okay, understood. Then I did an interview with Shobhaa De and brought up the word ‘sex’ on purpose. brought up the word because everything that I wanted to be was not ‘Miss Universe’, or ‘the most beautiful person.
’ I wanted to be a liberated human being, someone who is truly free. So in that attempt, I became India’s first Miss Universe." On work front, Sushmita was last seen in Aarya - Antim Vaar , the finale to her Disney+ Hotstar series.
