The pageant was incorporated on a philosophy rarely seen in the industry\u2014 Every woman who comes to the stage is a winner.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The spectacular event concluded at The Leela Ambience Convention Hotel, Delhi, by crowning <strong>Mrs. Dhanashri Joshi&nbsp;<\/strong>as Mrs India International Queen 2026, and&nbsp;<strong>Mrs. Mira Gadhia<\/strong>&nbsp;as Classic Mrs India International Queen 2026. The grand finale winners were crowned by Bollywood actor Neelam Kothari Soni and the pageant director Ankita Saroha.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though the grand ceremony gave many memorable moments to both participants and audiences, the biggest applause of the evening was reserved for a message that went beyond the winners&#8217; podium.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One could spot Women of all ages, ranging from 21 to 74, sharing the same stage, which was proof that ambition knows no age. Further, marriage, motherhood and family responsibilities do not eclipse a woman\u2019s dream.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the event, Actress&nbsp;<strong>Neelam Kothari Soni<\/strong>&nbsp;shared her thoughts. She applauded that the platform empowers women of all generations to pursue their dreams.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She said, \u201cPeople often throw around the line that after marriage your life is finished and you can only do family work. But confidence and passion have no age. It was wonderful to see women from 21 to 74 taking part in this beauty pageant.\u201d She further urged women to follow their passions wholeheartedly. \u201cWhatever you do, do it with all your heart. You have to be passionate because highs and lows will always come,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The concept of the pageant is in tune with the vision held by its founder and director Ankita Saroha, who believes that every married woman deserves to come around herself. According to her, many women forget about their dreams after marriage because of the family and responsibilities. It gives every woman a chance to move ahead and live their dreams. The pageant\u2019s motto is \u2018Be Strong, Be Confident, Be You\u2019.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to&nbsp;<strong>Ankita,<\/strong>&nbsp;the pageant is designed not only to identify winners but also to create role models.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8220;Mrs India International Queen is not just a modelling platform. It is a platform where women become role models for society.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Winners of Mrs India International Queen 2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Category: Mrs India&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Mrs India International Queen 2026<\/em>&nbsp;Winner:<\/strong><em>&nbsp;<strong>Mrs. Dhanashri Joshi <\/strong>from Delhi \u2013&nbsp;<\/em>(cash prize Rs 1lakh)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Mrs India International Queen 2026<\/em>&nbsp;1st Runner Up<em>:<\/em><\/strong><em>&nbsp;Mrs. Monisha Sreekanth from Singapore \u2013&nbsp;<\/em>(cash prize Rs 50000)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Mrs India International Queen 2026 <\/em><em>2nd Runner-up:<\/em><\/strong><em>&nbsp;Mrs. Ayushi Sharma from Madhya Pradesh \u2013&nbsp;<\/em>(cash prize&nbsp;<em>Rs 25,000)<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Category: Classic&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Classic Mrs India International Queen 2026&nbsp;<\/em>Winner<em>:<\/em><\/strong><em>&nbsp;Mrs. Mira Gadhia (Dubai) &amp; cash prize \u20b91,00,000<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Classic Mrs India International Queen 2026 1st Runner-up:<\/em><\/strong><em>&nbsp;Mrs. Elanor Rajendran (Singapore) &amp; cash prize \u20b950,000<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Classic Mrs India International Queen 2026  2nd Runner-up:<\/em><\/strong><em>&nbsp;Dr. Alice Mathew (Kerala) &amp; cash prize \u20b925,000<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Orane International Janakpuri was the official Makeup Sponsor for the show.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The learning experience was led by industry experts.
