May Queen Crowned
TDT | Manama
Michelle Dsouza was crowned The Indian Club BFC May Queen 2025 in a dazzling finale that captivated an audience of over 1,000 on Friday night. The grand event, held at The Indian Club in Manama, unfolded across multiple fashion segments and high-energy performances that kept the crowd engaged well past midnight. Organisers ensured a seamless blend of pageantry and entertainment, with the audience treated to both competitive fashion rounds and vibrant dance displays.
Grace and Glamour
The evening opened with a group dance by the 14 contestants, choreographed by Arti of Aurians Academy, followed by three competitive rounds: casual, ethnic, and party wear.
Contestants showcased style and confidence, with evident professionalism attributed to grooming by choreographer Asar Ziya.
A panel of judges had the tough task of selecting the top five finalists for the question-and-answer round. The crown ultimately went to Michelle Dsouza, with Feryl Rodrigues named first runner-up and Muskan Bhargav second runner-up.
Special Accolades
Other honours included Best Smile for Anoushka Rajwade, Best Walk for Feryl Rodrigues, and Best Hairdo for Michelle Dsouza.
All winners received a mix of crowns, sashes, cash prizes, and luxury gifts including jewellery from Joyalukkas and Al Saraj Jewellers, and vouchers from I Point, Philips, and Al Aujan.
All 14 contestants were awarded gift hampers, ensuring no participant went home empty-handed.
