The actor won Miss Universe back in 1994 and subsequently became the first Miss India Universe — the pageant also took place in Manila then and Sushmita is revved to be going back to her Filipino friends.

“It’s where it all began #manila1994 #missuniverse1994, life comes a full circle, from winning Miss Universe to having owned its Indian Franchise to now,” reads her post.
