India's hope for Miss Universe's crown, Ekta Chowdhry, Miss India 2009, competes in the swimsuit segment of the Miss Universe 2009 presentation show at Atlantis, Paradise Island, Bahamas.
'I'm comfortable in a bikini!'
We recently saw Ekta’s stunning pictures in a swimsuit at Bahamas... however, she doesn’t like the fact that slipping into a bikini becomes such a huge issue in India. “It’s a very narrow mentality to create such frenzy around wearing swimsuits. One can even look cheap in a salwar-kameez. It’s not an easy task to attain a fit body. In India, a large number of people fail to maintain a good physique, until they start starving themselves. I think that’s the main reason why it’s a big deal to wear bikinis back home."
"I wore a swimsuit in front of 10,000 people here, but I didn’t feel conscious about it. It’s not about how many clothes you wear, it’s about how you carry yourself. It’s not about your attire but about your attitude. Girls here carry bikinis with same elegance as they are wearing a gown. In Bahamas, you can’t expect us to be covered from head to toe, its quite hot here.”
