Sushmita Sen’s Dinner Dilemma: Starvation Amidst Glory

Sushmita Sen, who secured India’s first-ever Miss Universe title 29 years ago, recently shared a delightful anecdote from her winning moment during an interview with Curly Tales. Recounting her immediate post-victory experience, the actress humorously confessed to her complete ignorance of table manners. She found herself thrust into the limelight, tasked with presiding over a formal seven-course meal at an official dinner in Mexico.

In her conversation with Curly Tales, Sushmita Sen recounted a hilarious incident, recalling her lack of knowledge about table manners prior to winning Miss Universe. She reminisced about being dispatched to Mexico City shortly after her triumph, at the tender age of 18 and with limited proficiency in English. Seated at a formal dinner, mostly surrounded by men, including her travel manager Barbara, she found herself famished and clueless about how to proceed. Desperately hungry, she leaned over to Barbara, smiling, and whispered, “I’m very hungry.” Barbara’s response? “So are they, and you’re the chief guest; you need to start.”

Sushmita further confessed her bewilderment at navigating the seven-course meal, expressing gratitude for the timely assistance she received from the tourism manager of Mexico, seated beside her. Reflecting on the experience, she admitted feeling extremely out of place, resolving never to find herself in such a predicament again. From the episode, she gleaned a valuable lesson: “Eat well at home before attending official dinners, so you won’t feel tempted to indulge excessively.” Armed with this wisdom, she explained, one can gracefully decline additional servings, attributing it to a strict dietary regimen.

On the professional front, Sushmita Sen’s most recent appearance was in “Aarya – Antim Vaar,” serving as the culmination of her series on Disney+ Hotstar.
