As a writer and influencer, in today’s world, collaborations are a way of life for us. But I have been very keen and meticulous in picking up the most relevant ones only always because I like to focus my energies in the right direction. I pick the brands and initiatives whose core philosophy is in sync with mine and we can together be the face of positive change.
Thus I was super elated when I was invited as the official blog sponsor of the Grehlaxmi Mrs. India 2022 pageant. It was a perfect step for women empowerment in the right direction to inspire common women to come out of their shells and identify their worth. Not only will they benefit from it immensely but also motivate thousands of others to be like them.
We have started the initial promotions last year but then due to the pandemic, the grand event finally took place this year in Delhi in EROS International Hotel in Nehru Place on 18th April. What a star-studded night it was, worth getting etched on the hearts for eons. No force on earth could have stopped me from attending the grand event but I was forced to attend the event virtually due to sudden deteriorated health. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it to the Tee and also interacted with the winner over an exclusive Zoom Interview which will be available for you all soon.
I am grateful to the Grehlaxmi team for having sent over my felicitations and so many gifts from such worthy brands as a token of appreciation for my contribution to the event on several fronts in the past year. It really means so much to me. Also, my cousin was present at the event as a media partner to cover the event and was ecstatic to see his Di’s logo banner as the official blog sponsor and also sent me a pic of the same. Little joys of life mean everything, isn’t it? Hopefully, I will get right there myself next year for the Season 2 of the pageant. So look forward to it.
Now I am sure you are keen on knowing who won the pageant. Thus sharing below the Press Release containing all the information you seek, with all my love.
