A Beautiful Changemaker!

The world needs strong women. Women who will lift and build others, who will love and be loved. Women who live bravely, both tender and fierce. Women of indomitable will. Marishca Rodrigues, one of the finalists of First India Queen proved that Many of the things that seem impossible now will become realities of tomorrow and the limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible. From being trolled for the type of acneprone skin and skinny body she carries to become the girl she always wanted to be, strong, tall and confident, Marishca Rodrigues, hailing from the green lands of Mumbai called Vasai shook the world with her beautiful transformation.

She again proved that ‘Your success in life isn’t based on your ability to simply change. It is based on your ability to change faster than your competition because change is hard because people overestimate the value of what they have and underestimate the value of what they may gain by giving that up.’ When asked about her journey the beauty said, “I am a 24-year-old standing 5 feet 11 inches tall, who is passionate about sports and fitness. I am a trained badminton player as well. I am currently pursuing a bachelor’s in Education. I have been a semi-finalist in the top four major pageants of India which includes Miss India, Miss Diva, Miss Earth and Miss International. I believe ‘You cannot change the world, but you change one thought, and the world will change on its own hence I am working as an educator, shaping every child’s future in the best way possible thus keeping a balance of my responsibilities towards my family, studies as well as my passion.” The ravishing beauty further said, “I am extremely grateful to Dr Jagdeesh Chandra and First India Queen for providing me this golden opportunity and making my dreams come true.”
