Powered by a dynamic virtual format VLCC Femina Miss India 2020 co-powered by Sephora and Roposo, promises to continue its tradition of transforming the lives of talented young women and giving them a platform to represent the country.

With a nearly six-decade legacy of transforming lives of young talented women who have become icons in the glamour and fashion industry, VLCC Femina Miss India 2020 co-powered by Sephora & Roposo,  vows to continue its tradition of creating icons with an aim to extend whole-hearted support to the new generation women who have the potential to lead and represent the country in the future, this time, online.

In the wake of the Covid -19 pandemic, Miss India Organization translates its scouting operations into the digital media space, in pursuit of beauty ambassadors. Powered by a dynamic new format, VLCC Femina Miss India 2020 is anchored by an underlining vision to empower the youth and represent the best of Indians talents at International platforms.

The pageant in its virtual format for the first time ever, has launched a nationwide hunt effective 5th October 2020 to select representatives each from the 28 states and a representative from Delhi, Jammu & Kashmir besides a collective representative from the Union Territories making for a total of 31 finalists. The selection process of these finalists will entail an online registration process inviting specific audition task submission on the Roposo App. An internal screening process, which will include experts and panelists, will select the 31 finalists.

These shortlisted finalists will undergo rigorous training and grooming and will be mentored by none other than the former beauty queen and actress Neha Dhupia. Subsequently the girls will be further shortlisted and will arrive in Mumbai to compete for the coveted crown at the Grand Finale in the month of February 2021.

Talking about the pageant with pride and passion, Neha Dhupia said, “Each year as the journey of Femina Miss India begins, it brings back all the memories of the priceless experiences I’ve had with this pageant.  It’s almost like re-living every moment of my journey with these young glamorous girls who are so full of enthusiasm and capability to take on the world with power and elegance. Certainly, there are challenges with  the digital process in the wake of the pandemic, however I’m confident it will be as exciting and worthwhile irrespective of the layout.”

The annual pageant has roped in the leading Wellness & Beauty brand, VLCC, as its lead sponsor for the 2020 edition. Commenting on the association, Jayant Khosla, Managing Director and Group Head, VLCC Group said, “For VLCC, beauty is more than merely skin deep. In essence a proactive healthcare and beauty brand, and being the only player whose wellness programmes carry the Recommended by Indian Medical Association stamp, VLCC has built its reputation on, and is widely known for, its customised, highly effective, scientific and safe, wellness solutions; the therapeutic approach of its beauty services and its wide range of over 300 herbal/natural skin, body and hair-care products. VLCC’s services and product offerings expand across almost the entire spectrum of the health and beauty segment. VLCC and Femina Miss India both cater to the aspirations of the strong and multi-faceted modern Indian Woman, hence our association with this event.”

The winner of VLCC Femina Miss India 2020 co-powered by Sephora & Roposo, will represent India at the Miss World pageant. The runner up too will stand a chance to represent the country at International Pageant - Miss Grand International. Winning the title of Miss India will not only catapult you to fame, but also give you a chance to live in the Maximum City — Mumbai — known to be the hub of entertainment and glamour, with all expenses taken care of.

Talking about the event, Rohit Gopakumar, COO, Miss India Organization said, “57 glorious years of Miss India have been privy to several emotions, lots of glamour, immense talent and incredible competitive spirit. This platform has changed many deserving lives and opened avenues that may have once seemed far to reach. It’s what makes this pageant so special. This time the format of the competition has shifted into the digital space and while it may seem challenging for everyone involved, we are looking forward to a thrilling experience and another young exuberant winner who will hold the capacity to bring the Miss World crown to India, yet again.”
