Top model and former beauty queen Shamita Singha has another view. "After the management of the Miss India contest changed, the standard has dropped. The girls being selected don't even match the criteria of beauty queens, from the height to body type. That's why you don't even remember the names or the faces of the girls who've won in the past few years.
Diction expert Sabira Merchant, who had trained Mirza when she won the Miss Asia Pacific, explains, "World competition has increased unbelievably and we have to raise the bar with our contestants. We need the best talent to come forward fearlessly.
Ask Dutta whether beauty pageants are still efficient talent hunts and she says, "Beauty pageants are specific in their requirements. They look for girls who can represent India internationally while retaining their Indianness.
"I don't know what is stopping us,' exclaims Chopra. "Either the best girls are not competing or our luck has run out. India has tremendous potential, maybe not enough opportunities to represent that anymore.
