Harnaaz Kaur Sandhu Instagram – When you look at Harnaaz today, it’s hard to imagine her as the reticent and under-confident 17-year-old whose life changed when she participated in the Times Fresh Face contest. It’s equally difficult to remember that she is still only 22, even if on her way to complete world domination. On the one hand, she’s the spokesperson for the Miss Universe Organisation; on the other, she’s remotely studying for her Masters. But what makes her reign significantly more challenging than the Indian Miss Universes from at least 20 years ago is dealing with the stress of constantly being in the public eye because of social media. “This attention comes with a lot of pros and cons,” admits Harnaaz, letting an ever-so-slight frown crease her game face. “People want to know a lot about you, but, at the same time, they come with a lot of expectations. I respect that, but it is my life,” Harnaaz told Femina in a candid chat during our cover shoot. Read about her journey, success story and being Miss Universe 2021 in our latest issue.
