Miss World 2017 Manushi Chhillar looks completely unrecognisable in these old photos
We couldn’t believe it was really the newly-crowned Miss World 2017, Manushi Chhillar, when we saw her old photos. But the 20-year-old medical student’s jaw-dropping transformation is nothing new, as most beauty pageant winners completely change their look with help from top grooming and training professionals.

Mumbai-based make-up artist Pakhi Pahuja, who specialises in bridal make-up, concurs. While some Miss India pageant winners need a subtle beauty overhaul -- merely opting for a new hair colour or a quick teeth whiten -- others need a makeover so dramatic, they look almost unrecognisable, says Pahuja.
“There is so much pressure on these girls to be thin, be well-spoken and somehow, manage to keep it all together. It is no easy feat getting prepped and primed for a big international pageant,” she says, adding, that contrary to popular belief, beauty pageant winners aren’t superhuman, they’re just well-prepared.
“It only looks easy -- a lot of work goes into being a pageant queen,” Pahuja says.
“They’re some of the most stunning women around the world, hand-selected to represent the epitome of beauty, both inside and out, for their respective countries. They know what they are getting into and how to achieve perfection under pressure,” she says.
Both Karbhary and Pahuja mirrored the idea that beauty was a subjective term and that confidence was key.
“There’s nothing more confidence-boosting than looking and feeling beautiful. All that grooming and training definitely go a long way and help seal the deal,” says Karbhary.
