Soon after her title win in Hyderabad, Telangana, she sat down to speak with the media. She shared the mantras that form the backbone of her professional life, confidence, determination, and compassion. Sharing her formula for success, she told the media, 'Always believe in yourself. Stick to your core values. I'm here today because I held onto my purpose and believed in myself. Also, don't forget to love yourself along the journey.' Final four contestants, Martinique's Aurelie Joachim, Ethiopia's Hasset Dereje Admassu, Poland's Maja Klajda and Thailand's Opal Suchata Chuangsri, pose during the 72nd Miss World finale in Hyderabad. Reuters 'It's not always easy — it can be exhausting and discouraging at times. But if you never give up, you'll eventually get to where you're meant to be,' she added. Opal Suchata Chuangsri was crowned Miss World 2025 in Hyderabad on Saturday. She edged out Hasset Dereje Admassu of Ethiopia in the grand finale as the latter emerged as the runner-up. Opal Suchata Chuangsri walks the ramp in the earlier rounds of the 72nd Miss World finale in Hyderabad. Reuters For the ceremony, Suchata donned a white gown adorned with opal-like florals.

She said, 'I would say that first meeting all of the women here in Telangana, India. You all have really inspired me on this journey with all your strength and resilience and the beauty from within all of you.
