The curtains closed on the 72nd Miss World pageant, and a new queen was crowned. Opa Suchata Chuaengsarree from Thailand took home the title, leaving the audience in awe. But what stole the show was the powerful question asked by Bollywood actor Sonu Sood, which left the judges impressed.
During the grand finale, Sonu Sood posed a thought-provoking question to Opa, asking, “What has this journey taught you about honesty and personal responsibility, and how does it shape our stories?” Opa’s response was nothing short of inspiring. “Being part of Miss World is the greatest opportunity of my life,” she said. “I’ve learned that it’s our responsibility to look at things in a certain way. I think one big thing we can do here is to be a role model for everyone, children, adults, and everyone who looks up to us.”
The audience was captivated by Opa’s words, and her answer resonated deeply with the judges. As she accepted her crown, Opa expressed her gratitude, saying, “I always believe that no matter who you are, your age, or position, there’s always someone next to you who respects you. The best way to lead people is by being gracious in your actions. That’s the best thing we can do for the people around us and our world. Thank you so much.”
Meanwhile, India’s Nandini Gupta put up a tough fight, but unfortunately, she missed a spot in the top 8. Despite this, India has had an impressive track record, with six Miss World titles under its belt.
As the world welcomes its new Miss World, Opa’s message of responsibility and kindness is sure to inspire many. Her response to Sonu Sood’s question will be remembered for a long time, and her reign as Miss World 2025 is expected to be nothing short of remarkable.
