Beauty Pageant & Miss India 2020

Since her school and college years, Manasa was intrigued about modelling, and after Priyanka Chopra won the crown of the Miss World 2000, it inspired Manasa to follow in Priyanka’s footsteps. In an interview, while talking about Priyanka Chopra, Manasa Varanasi said,

Out of all the beauty queens, Priyanka Chopra stands out to me because she’s an explorer – she has always chosen to push her boundaries and made her mark in various spaces – music, movies, entrepreneurship, social work, and the list goes on. Also, as a shy kid who tried to make herself heard, I always looked up to Priyanka for the outspoken badass that she was. It’s her versatility and strength that I draw inspiration from.”

The journey to win beauty pageants started from her college, where she won the title of Miss Fresher.
