Sushmita Sen On Her Ignorance Of Table etiquette During The Miss Universe Dinner

Sushmita Sen is known for being open and honest about both her personal and professional struggles. The actress now admitted that she didn't attend a Miss Universe dinner because she didn't know how to use table manners in an interview with Curly Tales. 29 years ago (1994), Sushmita made history as the first Indian to win the Miss Universe title. "I didn't learn table manners before winning Miss Universe," the actress stated. They sent me to Mexico City after I won it. At eighteen, I can hardly speak English. At that moment, I'm just trying to get things together, and Barbara, my travel manager, is seated to my right. After Barbara, there are all men. I'm so hungry that I'm grinning and telling my travel manager, "I'm very hungry." Then I stoop down and say, I'm starving, Barbara. "So are they, and since you're the main guest, you should get started," she says."I felt very out of place, and I don't want to feel that again," Sushmita Sen continued. "Pet bhar ke kha ke jaao ghar se, taki waha pe jaake khana khane ki utsukta nahi hogi" is one of the lessons I learned. It means to eat well at home and then go to an official dinner to avoid feeling the need to eat there. Then you can politely decline, "No more, please," and they'll think you're on a strict diet.Sushmita Sen has never held back when discussing her career path in the business. In a previous interview with the late actor Farooq Shaikh on the talk show Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai on NDTV, the actress revealed that she couldn't afford to buy four different designer outfits for the Miss India finale, so she had her winning gown sewed by a local tailor."Itne paise nahi the ki hum designer kapde pehen ke stage par jaye," the actress said. The chahiye costumes are char. Our financial situation prevented us from purchasing designer clothing, even though we are middle class.

Four costumes were required. Being middle-class, we were aware of our limitations.""So what?" Sushmita Sen continued, "Mum ne kaha? Tumhe dekhne arhe hai, log dekhne thodi arhe hai. We went to the Sarojini Nagar market, a flea market in New Delhi, and bought some stuff. Ah, garage mein, ek petticoat wala aadmi tha, unko jaakar thama dia aur kaha, 'Dekho bhaiya, TV pe aane wala hai, accha banana.' New khareed ke kaat ke, usmein elastic daal ke gloves pehne the maine, mummy ne bache hue fabric ko mod k ek rose bnaya aur fir kala socks. Unhone uss fabric ke sath mera winning gown tyaar kia. [My mother exclaimed, 'Whatever?Rather than focusing on your attire, they will observe you instead. Therefore, we purchased a piece of cloth from the Sarojini Nagar market. There was a local tailor who made petticoats downstairs in the garage. We told him, "This will come on TV, make a good dress," and gave him the material. From that fabric, he made my winning gown, and my mother used the leftover fabric to make a rose. I wore our brand-new, black socks as gloves after we cut and added elastic."
