Quotes
Aditi Govitrikar
Model, psychologist, physician, actor, and first Indian woman to win the Mrs World title in 2001.
“I became Mrs World the same year that Lara and Priyanka also became winners. We had a party, the unfortunate party, actually. The funny part was, I was not at the same publication house as them, so they were given a flat, a car, and all, and I was given a bouquet.”
NDTV
“Lara was standing next to me. She was saying, 'Look, we have a car, a house, and you have a husband.' So I said, 'That's brilliant.' I said, 'That's a good thing.'”
