00:37talangana cultural places and heritage places so what's your feeling ma'am i'm feeling grateful to

00:42be here because india has been a passion to me since a young girl i've been a fan and i've been

00:49following from far away from bilkaricha barsad sajan teri dulhan a lot of a lot of things that

00:56i have consumed over the years so i'm really happy to be here so what is your best memory in

01:01higher rabbi uh i would say the biryani rice um but overall the city itself is just so full of colors

01:08uh we visited also the palace which it was very magical very spiritual um i got to see like the

01:16beautiful architecture of the um of the of the palace and a few days ago we actually went to

01:22ramoji film city which was also exquisite in terms of like the the water fountains and the way that

01:29they built the the the houses you know for the film sets it's just something that india has really like

01:36has done a great job especially talangana what's the first most thing get into your mind when you think

01:42about india uh ashwarya i love ashwarya very much i'm a big fan of ashwarya but mostly uh the very

01:52welcoming um way that the indians have been giving us and also very the hospitality is just like top

01:59notch it's five stars since the moment we arrived we felt safe we have the security the police has been

02:06protecting us thank you so much police of telangana india uh we feel very protected and definitely i

02:13advise everybody that is watching this from abroad to come here and visit us what is the most

02:18challenging task in contesting in miss world 2025 what is the most challenging task you faced probably

02:23how to stay focused on yourself and not looking at the competition on the left and the right because

02:29you are competing with yourself that is something that i have to put in my mind every day because

02:33there's a lot of great competition there's a lot of girls that are very competent but you have to

02:40stay focused on yourself you cannot look to the left or to the right your mental state has to be very

02:45very good and always very composed and always calm for anything that comes your way yes so could you

02:51explain your struggles ma'am it's been a long journey right while participating in miss world so could you

02:56explain the scenario um a lot of challenges that i've been facing um yes um probably just how to

03:06keep myself very calm because um this answers a little bit of the same you know the what i just

03:13answered it goes a little hand to hand and the challenges may be like waking up very early and

03:19sleeping very late but it's uh but if you're very disciplined you can cope with it so it's just about

03:25everything it's in the mental state anything everything comes to the to the mental state

03:30what is meant to be social responsibility for missful contestants ma'am what is sorry social

03:35responsibility what's your thoughts on it my okay my beauty with the purpose okay so uh my beauty

03:40with the purpose it's a center for young girls and to help them develop psychologically professionally

03:47and also a self-development for them because i feel like our girls are lacking uh attention and they

03:54need a lot of our the the the the grown-ups to to give them some guidance and for example if they

04:01want to pursue their dreams in the industry or if they want to do the job that you're doing who they

04:06talk to so we are just um guiding them through that path because as a young girl myself when i was a young

04:13girl i i'm the older sister and i had to kind of teach myself a lot of things and i wish somebody had like

04:20a mentor i wish i had somebody to do the things that i'm going to do for them now so that's why

04:25have you watched any indian movie or telugu movie especially of course i have uh i did

04:32and i think it was barsad as well and because there's aishwarya and um i know the song is talse talmila

04:39but it's talse talmila it's from barsad isn't it yeah so i have learned the songs as well

04:49telugu movie especially i'm not sure i don't think but i will definitely once i go back home

04:55i will definitely put on my tv and watch it could you say wishes to our one india audience kisses to

05:01everyone from miss angola world 2025 one india thank you hi ma'am how are you hello i'm good how

05:08are you fine i'm doing good so ma'am so far what's the best memory in hyderabad and how it's feeling to

05:14contest in miss world 20 25 yeah my best memories has definitely been touring telangana and discovering

05:21uh the different culture and tradition but also the food i think my biggest highlight was yesterday

05:27um the drone show that we had uh it was so amazing at the state uh secretariat so that was very very

05:34beautiful to see that was the first time i'd seen a drone show but i think also the palace that we went

05:39to that was so beautiful and it sparked so much royalty uh but yes telangana is very beautiful but

05:45also having to meet my sisters around the world has been amazing is there any culture or tradition or food

05:53that surprised you knew her that surprised me um i had sort of had an idea of the food really the

06:00different curries the biryani rice i was looking forward to that and also the naan um i wouldn't

06:05really say there's been as many surprises but i've been able to discover a few of other dishes yeah so

06:12what's the feeling to represent your country uganda in the global stage like this it feels amazing it's

06:16such an honor and i'm grateful to god for that and i hope that i'm able to do my very very best and

06:23raise uganda's flag higher than ever before by god's grace uh so i'm blessed i'm blessed to just be a

06:29brand ambassador for my country so many angles are watching this uh event and many of them take you as

06:35an inspiration to participate further what's your words to share with them i would say to always

06:40believe in yourself be confident self-belief is key and your dreams are valid your dreams can always

06:46come true don't stop believing keep pushing for it and put the work in of course but most importantly

06:53god always have god by your side i always believe that i could not have come this far in my life or in

06:58my journey if it was not for god what is the uh deciding factor to reach the finals and uh how

07:03is the judging process in dolma yeah uh i think they do look at um the performance according to our

07:08different fast track challenges which we we've had sports so far we're gonna have talent this top model

07:14is beauty with the purpose which is your project and then um there's one more that has skipped my mind

07:20top model video the purpose uh project talent as well yes so those are the fast track activities so i

07:27think it depends on your performance on that but every other thing i guess every other aspect about

07:31you your character your aura your energy i think it all counts so you can't exactly know what they

07:37want you just have to do your best apart from the beauty what are the other parameters they would

07:41consider to contest in miss world 2025 uh i would say the heart of miss world is definitely beauty with a

07:48purpose so of course besides your beauty of the face and your beauty of the heart also matters a lot

07:54that's the most important thing uh also being able to be someone that is a leader uh create impacts

08:01uh positive and sustainable impact into your community for me it's my project which is a new

08:07news initiative that is creating autism awareness and acceptance not just in uganda but around the

08:12world so you've been telugu world since two weeks so have you learned any telugu words i know

08:18namaskaram of course namaste i think that would be it for today namaste bagunara namaste bagunara namaste

08:28could you say the audience namaste bagunara finally ma'am have you seen any indian movies and what's your

08:35favorite indian movie and who's your favorite indian star ah my favorite indian star will always and

08:40forever be priyanka chopra i think she's also my favorite miss world um before i came actually the last movie

08:46that i watched was burphy yes i love burphy and uh but what i loved about it the most was also the

08:53fact that it relates to my project my beauty with a purpose so priyanka chopra was acting as the girl

08:58that had autism and also burpee he was mute but it goes to show that regardless of if you have whether

09:04you or have a special need you can still thrive in life so it spoke to me and also my purpose my

09:09project you've seen any telugu movie are you known any telugu star any telugu star i would be like if

09:16i said i do but hopefully i'm gonna make my research and i know i'll know of you thanks a lot of pleasure

09:21talking with you thank you hi ma'am how are you hi i'm very well thank you how are you fine i'm doing

09:27good so ma'am it's been a long journey since two weeks you've been here so what's your best memory so

09:32far my favorite memory so far has to be when we went to pocham valley village where they taught us

09:41the whole process of making saris from the silk saris to the cotton saris so i think that was the most

09:50memorable they even showed us a fashion show of how different ways that they can style saris

09:56and yeah so it was a beautiful experience i've had many memorable experiences here but one that

10:03really hits home is when we visited aig hospital and they showed us different ways that they are

10:13innovating and looking for ways to prevent diseases and their use of ais was really impressive but for me

10:20personally i was really happy to come and visit one of the hospitals that many of my people

10:26back home in south sudan come to and get treatment that's one thing i really love about india is

10:34their uh hospitality and accommodation and the fact that we are able to come and receive quality health

10:42care in telangana is there any culture or food or tradition that surprised you so far that surprised you

10:49so far

10:54i would say i found the food very spicy and typically in south sudan i enjoy spice i would i even eat the

11:02chilis uh as a snack or as a side to whatever i'm eating but since coming here i've not been able to

11:10eat any of the spicy food so that was a surprise but um what really impressed me was the hospitality

11:18and the kindness everybody has shown us throughout this entire experience is there any specific diet

11:25plan to be followed a specific diet plan could you reveal the secrets please well

11:32miss world is a once in a lifetime experience so for me personally i didn't want to restrict myself

11:39and so i've made sure to try everything and to savor every moment of this experience

11:47apart from beauty what are the other parameters that would be considered to participate in miss

11:51world map apart from beauty uh there's character and brains yeah so and beauty with a purpose is the

11:58heart of miss world what inspired you the most to participate in miss world what really drew me to

12:04miss world is their heart which is beauty with a purpose uh growing up in a foreign country i grew

12:13up in canada so i was as a refugee i was vulnerable to um different kinds of experiences but it was people

12:25like beauty with a purpose who reached out and who inspired and who supported and who empowered me to

12:33to become who i am today so who is your role model my role model well i would say personally as a personal

12:43model i would say my mom her resilience and her perseverance has been a guiding light for me

12:49throughout my life and as a public figure i would say nelson mandela because his compassion and his

13:01heart for peace and kindness really touched me so many angles are watching this event and watching you

13:11they'll take as an inspiration so could you share any words or suggestions i would say that you are more

13:18than capable than you think you are stronger than you think and whatever challenges you are facing know

13:25that you are able to get through it and by the time you bypass it you'll see that this challenge was a

13:33learning experience so don't give up don't be discouraged and believe in yourself believe that

13:40you you can face anything in this world did you make any friends over here oh i've made many friends so

13:47i've made uh i'd say i have now 108 sisters yeah so it's been a really wonderful experience what's the

13:55first most thing that would come to your mind when you think about india when i think about india the

14:01first thing that comes to mind is a smile yeah whenever i meet indians across the world even in canada

14:08the first thing i see is their very kind and beautiful smile and then the second thing is their

14:15hospitality and kindness yeah have you seen any indian movies and who is your indian superstar i've

14:23i've seen many indian movies but personally i enjoy indian dramas so uh that's what i used to watch with

17:21keep my peace during the whole month because i only think you can give the best of yourself

17:27when you feel at peace with yourself there is no need to be stressed i think every girl is gonna be

17:33give the best version of themselves and just during this stay here i think we already learned so much

17:39about herself and i think that is the big win during this whole journey at miss world so whatever the

17:47the last week is gonna give i'm just gonna enjoy my time here i'm gonna give the best version of
