When my name was announced for the winning title of MR AMERICA NATION 2023!!! That was the most surprising, happiest and nervous moment! I couldn't believe my ears on my name being announced as a winner! It was such an accomplishment and my parents were so proud of me! It was a great accomplishment for us as a family!

Practicing a good ramp walk was a little challenging in the beginning, but I nailed it on the final day!
World Class Kings Magazine: What inspired you to do your first pageant?
My parents were told by multiple people to look into modeling or commercials for me. And my mom was enlightened about Pageants in positive light, especially to begin young for an overall development as a confident leader with endless opportunities. After hearing this they decided to venture this platform with me.
My parents especially loved Miss & Mr America Nation pageant because it wasn't a competition just to win titles but also benefiting a cause you feed and provide for homeless families in America and Africa and there was mentoring offered focused completely towards the growth of participants so they can shine! This was so positive for them to resist.

World Class Kings Magazine: Tell us about your national costume?
My National costume will represent the era in Indian history when India was called "Sone ki Chidiya" or "The Golden Bird". When India was the richest country that time.
My outfit represents class, and is a replica of what used to be worn by the maharajas. The word maharaja means "Great King", creating status of magnificence, and is a symbol of their honour, kingdom, respect and morality.
In the modern times it is worn by the Indian groom presenting flamboyance. The groom wears this kind of a custom made long jacket, named a Sherwani over the trousers with a turban.
