Miss and Mrs Curvy Queen 2017 auditions: The first ever beauty pageant in India for plus size women

Recently, auditions for first ever plus size beauty pageant – Miss and Mrs Curvy Queen 2017 – were held in Nagpur. The motto of the beauty pageant is to celebrate women of all sizes.

Judges

Sholly Sethi (Best Catwalk at Mrs Maharashtra 2016) and television actor Umama Ahmed (Iconic Eyes at Mrs Maharashtra 2016) judged the auditions. Mrs Maharashtra Swati Banerjee too was present during the auditions who upped the glam quotient even in casual denims.

Breaking stereotypes

This pageant, which features women who didn’t get their due, aims to break stereotypes and give plus size women a platform to showcase their talent and achieve their dreams.

The ‘Aww Moment!’

When one of the organisers Neha Chanchlani asked an elated husband of a participant, Why do you want your wife to participate in this beauty pageant?? he answered, Since our marriage, my wife has always been by my side, with all her heart. Today is the time when I want her to do something for herself. Something that makes her happy!

The event was organised by 4th Dimension Media at Hotel Centre Point by Trishla Rane, (Director, 4th Dimension Media) and Neha Chanchlani (owner at Bounce Company and Studio Strands Salon).

A car, which can transform into an aircraft in two minutes and 15 seconds, has been issued with a certificate of airworthiness by the Slovak Transport Authority. The hybrid car-aircraft, which is capable of hitting speeds over 100mph (160kmh) and altitudes above 8,000ft (2,500m), is equipped with a BMW engine and runs on regular petrol-pump fuel.

The ‘Aircar’ has been manufactured by Klein Vision, which said that the certification followed 70 hours of flight testing and more than 200 take-offs and landings. Professor Stefan Klein, Founder of Klein Vision, said: “AirCar certification opens the door for mass production of very efficient flying cars.” He added: “It is official and the final confirmation of our ability to change mid-distance travel forever.”

In June 2021, the flying car completed a 35-minute flight between international airports in Nitra and Bratislava, Slovakia. Klein Vision told BBC News that it plans to fly to London from Paris in near future.

Rene Molnar, director, Civil Aviation, Transport Authority of Slovakia, said: Transportation Authority carefully monitored all stages of unique AirCar development from its start in 2017. Transportation safety is our highest priority. AirCar combines top innovations with safety measures in line with EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) standards. It defines a new category of a sports car and a reliable aircraft.
