Manushi was hailed by President Ram Nath Kovind, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar for winning the crown for India. She also proved that she can take remarks and jibes in the right spirit when she gracefully reacted to veteran Congress leader Shashi Tharoor’s ‘Chillar’ tweet.


She tweeted: “A girl who has just won the World isn’t going to be upset over a tongue-in-cheek remark. ‘Chillar’ talk is just small change - let’s not forget the ‘chill’ within Chhillar @ShashiTharoor (sic).”


Tharoor said the beauty queen was being 'uncommonly gracious' in her tweet reply to his post.
