In the final round, Sandhu wore a mermaid-shaped sleeveless gown designed by Saisha Shinde, which became an integral part of the historic occasion. The designer took to Instagram to document the whole task of creating the stunning garment, from drawing to draping to the final product.

Harnaaz Sandhu gown, which had a sheer top, corset bust, and embellished tassels over the front, guaranteed her the crown. Sandhu’s confidence, wit, and modesty won her the crown indeed, and that we must admit that the gown also played a role.
