Nikita Porwal Exits Miss World 2026 After Reaching Top 40 in Vietnam

India's representative Nikita Porwal has been eliminated from the prestigious 73rd Miss World competition after successfully advancing to the top 40 stage of the global event. The international beauty pageant took place in Vietnam, bringing together contestants from numerous countries around the world to compete for the coveted crown.

During the course of the competition, Nikita Porwal demonstrated her presence on the international stage by securing a well-earned spot in the top 40. Her inclusion in this initial elite bracket highlighted her preparation and performance throughout the preliminary rounds held in Vietnam.

Despite her notable achievement in reaching the top 40, Porwal was unable to advance further into the competition. She missed out on securing a coveted position among the top 20 contestants, bringing an end to her journey in the 73rd edition of the global pageant.

Prior to her participation on the international stage in Vietnam, Porwal had earned national recognition in India. She previously captured the prestigious Femina Miss India World 2024 title, a victory that paved the way for her representation of the country at the worldwide event.

Throughout her tenure and preparation under the Miss India Organization and Femina Miss India, Porwal carried the aspirations of the nation into the global arena. Although her run concluded before the final stages of the top 20, her participation remains a significant chapter in her pageantry career.
