Competitions

Harnaaz began competing as a teenager and almost immediately had success at age 17; she won the Miss Chandigarh in 2018 and the Max energy India competition. She was reluctant to tell her father when she first entered a pageant competition. It was only later that she informed him of her participation after winning. He has been supportive of her decision.

In August of 2021, judges shortlisted her as a top 50 semi-finalist in the Miss Diva pageant; she was later confirmed as a top 20 semi-finalist and would perform on live TV. In the preliminary competition, she won the most beautiful skin award and became a finalist in Miss Beachbody, Miss Talent, Miss Photogenic, and Miss Beautiful Smile. At the end of the event, they crowned her the winner of Miss Diva 2021, India’s national pageant. She then had the honor and the right to represent Miss India in the 70th Edition of the Miss Universe Pageant.

On December 13th, 2021, she became Miss Universe, held in Elite Israel; she bested 80 other contestants representing beautiful women worldwide. She became the third entry from India to wear the crown. It was given to her by Steve Harvey and outgoing titleholder Andre Meza.

She responded that it is empowering, giving you a platform to speak, helps build confidence to achieve your desires, and provides a clear vision that makes you more courageous—being the voice of many women worldwide, helping to bring changes and breaking stigmatism.

Miss Universe is about celebrating equality for all women to provide guidance and help transform those doubting themselves.
