Diana Hayden doesn’t have traits of Indian beauty, Aishwarya Rai has: Tripura CM stokes fresh controversy Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb |Photo Credit: PTI Agartala: After facing flak for saying Internet existed in India thousands of years ago during the Mahabharat era, Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb found himself at the centre of another row. Speaking at a design workshop on handlooms in the state capital here, Deb controversially said former Miss World Diana Hayden doesn’t represent Indian beauty.
“I am not criticising her but didn’t find traits of Indian beauty in her,” Deb said, as per the Hindustan Times. His reported comments have drawn widespread criticism from students, politicians and social workers inside as well outside the state.As per the report, Deb said an Indian beauty should exhibit traits of Goddess Lakshmi and Saraswati, which Hayden lacked. On the other hand, Aishwarya Rai, another Miss World pageant winner, exhibits those traits and represents Indian beauty well, the Tripura chief minister added. “Aishwarya Rai was crowned Miss World and that’s alright. She represents the Indian woman,” he said. Deb further questioned the beauty pageants, alleging a conspiracy behind their award. He claimed that Indian women latched onto cosmetics after several Indians ladies won international beauty contests sponsored by foreign firms.
Tripura CM says ‘Mahabharata era had Internet’; Twitterati ask about ‘Draupadi's favourite Snapchat filter’“International companies made prior plans to take over our Indian traditional products and consequently, we got Miss World from India five times. Any Indian contestant seemed to be able to take part in the Miss World contest and win the crown, even Diana Hayden got it. I am not criticising her but I didn’t find traits of Indian beauty in her,” he said. He added that once international cosmetics firms were able to establish themselves in the Indian market, the frequency of Indian girls winning such crowns reduced.The CM described the international fashion and design contest organisers as “international marketing mafia”, the northeasttoday.com reported. “Indian women did not use cosmetics. They didn’t use shampoo. We washed our hair with methi water for hair-fall and bathed with mud. Beauty contest organizers are international marketing mafia, who tried to capture a market of 125 crore Indians with half the population from women. There is a beauty parlour in every corner,” Deb said.Puranic period people had superhuman imagination or prototypes: Tripura GovernorDiana Hayden won the Miss World pageant in 1997, three years after Aishwarya Rai bagged it.
