Manushi
Chhillar
was
invited
by
her
alma
mater,
St.
Thomas
Girls
School,
New
Delhi,
to
speak
to
the
current
batch
of
class
11
and
12
science
students
and
address
the
need
to
never
give
up
on
one’s
dreams.
Given
the
coronavirus
pandemic,
this
discussion
was
all
the
more
relevant
and
important
to
students
who
are
going
to
uncertain
times
due
to
the
lockdown
and
no
visibility
of
when
schools/colleges
will
commence
or
for
that
matter
when
examinations
will
be
slotted.
Manushi
has
overcome
many
pressures
and
challenges
to
win
several
milestones
including
winning
back
Miss
World
for
India
after
17
years.
She
has
accumulated
important
life
experiences
and
lessons
by
traveling
to
and
interacting
with
affected/under-threat
communities
across
the
world
during
her
Miss
World
reign
in
2017.
The
school
faculty
felt
that
given
her
journey,
she
speaking
to
the
students
to
speak
on
this
will
be
apt.
Manushi
says,
“It
was
lovely
to
see
my
teachers
from
school
today
and
interact
with
my
juniors.
It
was
really
nostalgic
for
me
and
if
we
weren’t
battling
coronavirus,
I
would
have
done
this
in
person
today!
I
love
my
school
and
my
teachers.
They
have
shaped
me
and
I’m
indebted
to
them
for
making
my
formative
years
so
enjoyable
and
so
enriching.”
She
adds,
“It
was
amazing
interacting
with
my
juniors.
They
made
me
miss
school
so
much
today!
We
discussed
how
to
never
give
up
on
our
dreams
no
matter
what
life
poses
in
front
of
us.
This
subject
is
relevant
to
all
of
us,
especially
today,
because
life
as
we
have
known
it
is
in
lockdown
but
we
all
need
to
look
forward
to
it
not
give
up
on
our
dreams
and
aspirations.”
Manushi
is
set
to
debut
in
the
big-ticket
extravaganza
Prithviraj,
opposite
Akshay
Kumar.
She
says,
“I
shared
with
my
juniors
how
I
have
handled
pressures
in
my
life.
I
heard
them
out
on
what
they
want
to
achieve
and
it
was
amazing
to
see
how
passionate
they
are
about
their
lives.
It
was
a
heart-felt
interaction.”
