Pranjul Singh Chauhan: IIT Indore PhD Scholar Crowned Miss Face Universe Tourism Ambassador 2026

Yangon [Myanmar], August 24: In a remarkable blend of academic excellence, confidence, and international representation, Pranjul Singh Chauhan has achieved a prestigious milestone by being crowned Miss Face Universe Tourism Ambassador 2026 at Face of the Universe in Yangon, Myanmar.

The international event, held from 25th to 30th July 2026, provided Pranjul with an opportunity to represent India on a global platform while celebrating culture, talent, beauty, and purpose.

What makes Pranjul’s journey particularly inspiring is the unique combination of her academic and pageant pursuits. She is currently a PhD scholar at IIT Indore, specializing in Wireless Communication for 6G, while simultaneously exploring opportunities in fashion and international pageantry.

Where Academia Meets Ambition

Pranjul’s journey demonstrates that excellence can exist across different fields. While her academic focus is on next-generation wireless communication and 6G technology, her international pageant achievement reflects her confidence, personality, and ability to represent India on a global stage.

For Pranjul, the crown is not simply a title. She believes it comes with responsibility and hopes to justify the honour through meaningful work.

One of her major aspirations is to work with the Madhya Pradesh Government and contribute through her knowledge and abilities. At the same time, she remains committed to completing her PhD and achieving excellence in her academic field.

If the right opportunity comes her way, Pranjul would also love to explore acting, adding another dimension to her already diverse journey.

A Proud Family Behind Her Success

Pranjul believes that no achievement is possible without the love, encouragement, and support of family.

She expresses her heartfelt gratitude to her father, Mr. Amarjeet Singh Chauhan, and her mother, Mrs. Madhuri Chauhan, for always believing in her dreams and encouraging her to move forward with confidence.

She also credits her brother, Mr. Aditya Singh Chauhan, for being an important part of her support system.

Along with her family, Pranjul particularly acknowledges her sister, Ashi Singh, and her friends, especially Tamanna Singh, for their constant encouragement and motivation throughout her journey.

Special Gratitude to Majestic India

Pranjul also expresses special gratitude to Shambhavi Dii, Founder, and Avadh Bhaiya, Co-Founder of Majestic India, whose support, trust, guidance, and encouragement have played an important role in her journey.

Reflecting on her experience, Pranjul says she feels fortunate to be associated with Majestic India and appreciates the organisation for its love, support, and faith in her potential.

She believes Majestic India has created a meaningful platform by providing talented and aspiring women with opportunities to access international platforms while keeping the experience accessible at a national-level cost.

For Pranjul, this approach has made her association with Majestic India especially meaningful and her international pageant journey truly memorable.

“Never Listen to Society and Never Stop Dreaming”

Pranjul’s message to women is powerful and straightforward: never listen to society and never stop dreaming.

She believes that failure should not be treated as the end of the journey. Instead, every setback can become a stepping stone toward something greater.

Her philosophy is to keep moving forward regardless of challenges and maintain faith that the right path will eventually appear.

For women who are hesitant to pursue their ambitions because of societal expectations or fear of failure, Pranjul’s journey serves as an encouraging reminder to believe in themselves and continue working toward their goals.

A Unique Combination of Technology, Beauty and Purpose

Pranjul’s achievement stands out because of the unusual combination of advanced technological research and international pageantry.

As an IIT Indore PhD scholar working in the field of Wireless Communication and 6G, she represents an emerging generation of women who are breaking conventional boundaries and pursuing excellence across multiple fields.

While there are documented examples of PhD scholars participating in and winning international pageants, no reliable public source currently establishes Pranjul’s achievement as the first-ever instance of an IIT PhD scholar winning an international pageant. Therefore, her achievement is best described as a unique and notable milestone, rather than making an unverified historical “first” claim.

A Crown With a Purpose

For Pranjul Singh Chauhan, becoming Miss Face Universe Tourism Ambassador 2026 is not merely about wearing a crown. It represents the coming together of education, ambition, confidence, and the courage to explore new possibilities.

As she continues her PhD journey at IIT Indore while aspiring to contribute through public service and potentially explore acting, Pranjul is proving that women do not need to choose between intellect, ambition, creativity, and personal dreams.

With the support of her parents Mr. Amarjeet Singh Chauhan and Mrs. Madhuri Chauhan, her brother Mr. Aditya Singh Chauhan, her sister, friends, mentors, and the Majestic India team, Pranjul is stepping into a new chapter with confidence and purpose.

Her story is a reminder that dreams have no boundaries—and neither should a woman’s ambitions.
