Nobody knew Manasvi Mamgai few days ago. Now, she is getting all the attention of the Indian media. The Mumbai girl won the crown of Pantaloon Femina Miss India 2010. She will represent India in Miss World 2010 that will be held in October.

She did her schooling from Hansraj Public School. Manasvi was a good student in her school days. Along with her studies, she also participated in theatre, dancing, skating and other extra-curricular activities. At the age of 14, Manasvi won many competitions in dancing, singing and skating. After finishing her school, she went to Delhi and signed up with Elite Model Management India.

In Femina Miss India 2010, Manasvi won other sub contests including WGC Femina Miss Golden Heart, Femina Miss Catwalk, Gorgeous Femina Miss Beautiful Skin and Himalayan Femina Miss Natural Beauty. After winning the she was very happy. When asked how she was feeling she said:

I just want to sit back and cherish the moment. I have created history. Now I want to enjoy just that. And of course I want to hug my mom. She’s super happy and proud. I have only her and God to thank today.

From top 18 to 10 to 5 and finally to winning... how were the thoughts moving?

Don't know if anyone noticed, but every time they were announcing the winners, my name was the last to be announced. So it used to be a complete roller coaster ride for me. Every time I thot ab gai ab gai.. but God saved me!

While asking about her dream of winning the crown she said:

It all began the day I saw the blue crown on intact on Aishwarya Rai's head. So, you can say when other girls were dreaming to become Miss India, my eyes were still set on that blue crown of Miss World. And this victory is a part of the other big journey.
