Parvathy Omanakuttan gets nostalgic as she clocks 15 years since her win at Miss World

Within the glamorous realm of beauty pageants, where dreams weave their tales and destinies unfold, a singular presence emerges—a woman of poise, elegance, and a dream ignited in the innocence of youth. Hailing from the enchanting landscapes of Kerala, <keyword id="12341" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Parvathy-Omanakuttan" source="Orion">Parvathy Omanakuttan</keyword> embarked on a journey that not only enthralled a nation but left an indelible imprint on the global stage. Today, as we mark <keyword id="56305" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="15-years" source="Orion">15 years</keyword> since her remarkable ascent as the 1st Runner-Up at <keyword id="145" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Miss-World" source="Orion">Miss World</keyword> 2008, Parvathy invites us to traverse the enchanting chapters of her life—a narrative teeming with untold stories and the remarkable evolution of a beauty queen into a truly multifaceted personality.<br /><br /><br /><strong>'My dream of becoming a <keyword id="2993" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="miss-india" source="Orion">Miss India</keyword> was lit when I was just seven years old.'</strong><br /><br />Parvathy's journey into the world of pageantry was not a mere pursuit of glamour; it was a testament to dreams and destiny aligning. From winning the local state pageant to conquering Miss India South 2007, her path was paved with triumphs. Trained by the iconic Hemant Trevedi, Parvathy's destiny unfolded with a direct entry into the Top 10 of Miss India, a gateway to her aspirations. "My dream of becoming a Miss India was lit when I was just seven years old. I remember watching the crowning of Sushmita Sen and Aishwarya Rai, and their beaming faces, filled with emotions of happiness and joyful tears, instantly made me want to be on that stage. I always had that dream at the back of my mind, but I had no idea how I could ever reach that stage. I had the complete support of my family, especially my pillar of strength, my mother; my older sister, who was my go-to person for preparing for my introductory speech at every pageant I participated; the teachers from my college, who encouraged me; and motivated me and my friends from school who are still a very integral part of my life."<br /><br /><br /><strong>'It was Hemant (Trevedi) who told me that I should participate in Miss India'</strong><br /><br />Reflecting on her journey, Parvathy shares, "Since I was in college (Mithibai College), I was part of the cultural team and had won the Best Model at various inter-collegiate events. My way to Miss India was paved when I had the opportunity to be trained by Ace designer and choreographer Hemant Trevedi for our Intra collegiate pageant. It was Hemant who told me that I should participate in Miss India, but back then, my father was adamant that I could only participate in Miss India after I finished my graduation, so I waited. But I used that time to prepare in the best way I could. Before participating in Miss India, I participated in and won many pageants, and I got a direct entry into the Top 10 of Miss India after winning the first-ever <keyword id="9540" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="femina" source="Orion">Femina</keyword> Miss India South pageant in December 2007. Participating in multiple pageants, reading and watching interviews of previous winners in magazines and television, respectively, was my only training ground then."<br /><br /><br /><strong>'Winning Miss India was a dream come true, and being the first from Kerala to win, it was even more special'</strong><br /><br />The moment Parvathy was crowned Miss India was a dream materializing into reality. The recognition and accolades that followed were immense, yet her humility and grounded spirit remained untouched. "Winning the Miss India pageant was a dream come true for me, and being the first from my state, Kerala, to win it was even more special. I loved the recognition and accolades I received from people in India and outside of India. It felt even more amazing to be addressed as 'India' and 'Miss India' while representing my country at the Miss World pageant."<br /><br /><br /><strong>'I will always cherish each day spent with co-contestants from 108 countries, some of whom I am still friends'</strong><br /><br />Representing India at Miss World in South Africa, she not only competed but also created memories etched in time.<br /><br />Amidst the glamour and grandeur, the ten days of Safari stood out as a wild adventure. From encounters with lions to witnessing the birth of a wildebeest, Parvathy's journey in South Africa was both thrilling and eye-opening. "Miss World in South Africa is an unforgettable journey for me. I say it 'is' and not 'was' because it has taught me a lot and played a very important role in my life for making me who I am today. I will always cherish each day spent with co-contestants from 108 countries, some of whom I am still friends with despite the distance and different time zones. We experienced life in the jungle living in different terrains every few days - a few days in the middle of the forests with lions roaring super close to our tents in the night, a few days by the lake where we spotted a herd of hippos up and close, catching a naughty Baboon red-handed (butted actually …lol) who was trying to steal body butter from our room, watching our ranger catch a huge black mamba and showing off the beautiful reptile to us, seeing a wilder East giving birth, trying exotic and local delicacies of South Africa to name a few. But nothing comes close to our experience of being surrounded by four curious rhinos. It's difficult to put into words the fear in our minds along with the excitement to see those majestic beasts from such close proximity. Although we were praying for our lives until we could safely get onto our safari jeeps, we did have a hearty laugh once we were safely back in our tents."<br /><br /><br /><strong>'Miss World also holds a bitter-sweet feeling for me due to the 26th November terror attack'<br /></strong><br />However, the terror attack on 26th November 2008 left an indelible mark, connecting her deeply with the Taj family, where her father worked. "Miss World also holds a bitter-sweet feeling for me because when I was in Durban preparing for our sub contests, I heard the news of the 26th November terror attack. My father was working at the Taj Mahal Palace - Colaba then. By the Grace of God, my father had a morning shift and reached home safely. But that event broke me because the Taj always holds a special place in my heart. I couldn't imagine the number of people my parents and I knew who were in the hotel helping the guests and tending to their needs despite the dangerous situation. I proudly call myself part of the Taj family, and that incident shook my core."<br /><br /><br /><strong>'I may have not won the crown for India, but I certainly did make a place for India in the hearts of hundreds at the venue'</strong><br /><br />The warm welcome outside Mumbai Airport was overwhelming after Parvathy was crowned as the 1st Runner-Up at Miss World 2008, providing a taste of celebrity life in a pre-social media era. "I vividly remember the finale night of Miss World, where even the families and representatives from different countries were cheering for INDIA and me. When my name was announced as 1st Runn
