couldn’t stop smiling as she received a warm welcome when she arrived in Hyderabad on Wednesday. The Telangana girl won the title at VLCC Femina

Miss India

2020 co-powered by Sephora & Roposo, which took place in Mumbai on February 10. Manasa was elated to be back home after weeks and reunite with her family and friends. Hugs, flowers and lots of love awaited her return, apart from a royal bike procession from the airport to her home.

Looking resplendent in a red dress with the tiara perched on her head, Manasa let out a gasp as soon as she saw what awaited her. After posing for a few clicks with her loved ones, the pageant queen made her way to the procession that would take her home. Hyderabadi

bikers

planned a special surprise for her – they formed a convoy and lead a 5-KMs-long

rally

to celebrate her win.

Talking to Hyderabad Times upon her arrival, Manasa said, “It feels surreal to have won the crown. I cannot describe how good it feels. This journey was not easy at all. I’ve have my fair share of ups and downs through it all. To be back home to share this moment with my family means a lot.” Taking a pause to think about what she looks forward to, now that she’s back home, Manasa added, “The thing I missed the most is my ammama’s khaana. I look forward to giving her a huge hug and eating lots of homemade food.”

Manasa’s parents initially had reservations about her taking part in the pageant. “My grandmother minced no words when she told me she’s not happy with the decision of me taking part in the pageant. But over the course of my journey, her and my parents became by biggest cheerleaders.”
