Femina Miss India, the country’s most prestigious and oldest beauty pageant, has announced a powerful new partnership for its nationwide talent search. The renowned Worldwide Institute of Grooming & Pageants (WIGP) https://wigp.co/ has been selected as the Official Talent Partner for Femina Miss India Auditions across India, marking a significant milestone in India’s pageant and grooming landscape. This collaboration places the spotlight firmly on Dr (hc) Neeleshwari A B, Director of WIGP, a global mentor celebrated for her expertise in beauty, wellness and pageantry.

For decades, Femina Miss India has been the launchpad for India’s most iconic beauty queens, role models, changemakers and cultural ambassadors. Its legacy makes it the dream stage for young women aspiring to represent India internationally. The association with WIGP strengthens this journey further by uniting India’s premier pageant platform with an equally powerful name in grooming and talent development.

A Partnership Rooted in Excellence

WIGP has long been recognized as a high-calibre grooming powerhouse, honoured for shaping contestants who shine on both national and international stages. The organisation serves as an Associate Grooming Partner and Jury for some of the most prestigious beauty pageants across the world. Known for its structured, intensive and holistic training systems, WIGP brings a unique blend of technical precision, industry understanding and personality enhancement to every participant it mentors.

Under the leadership of Dr Neeleshwari A B, WIGP’s methods go far beyond runway coaching or stage presence. Her approach is two-pronged: one designed specifically for aspirants entering the glamour and pageant industry, and the other curated for professionals in the corporate world. This blend has created a rare learning ecosystem where confidence, communication, global etiquette and leadership presence are elevated simultaneously.

The Power-Packed Personality Behind WIGP’s Global Recognition

Dr (hc) Neeleshwari A B is widely regarded as one of the most influential grooming experts India has produced. Her contributions to beauty, wellness and pageantry have been honoured internationally. She has been awarded an Hon Doctorate by Chicago Open University(USA), recognizing her impact in shaping talent with global relevance. Her work has also earned her prestigious honours such as the IHRO Award (affiliated to UNESCO), the Make In India Award (affiliated to PMO) and the Passion Vista Style & Glamour Award for excellence in beauty,wellness&pageantry.

Beyond the glamour industry, Dr Neeleshwari is a distinguished trainer trusted by some of the most respected personalities in the nation. She has mentored Padma Shri awardees, Asian and African ambassadors, CEOs, senior management leaders, and members of the senior medical fraternity. Her programs are known for creating visible transformations in confidence, presentation and professional persona.

Why This Partnership Stands Out

The Femina Miss India x WIGP collaboration holds tremendous significance for three reasons:

  1. Femina Miss India’s unmatched heritage
    As India’s oldest and most prestigious beauty pageant, it has built an unparalleled reputation for discovering and nurturing talent that brings global glory to the country.
  2. WIGP’s proven influence in international pageantry
    As a grooming authority and juror for major national and international pageants, WIGP brings a deep understanding of what it takes to compete on the world stage.
  3. Scientific, structured training for real results
    WIGP’s programs balance beauty, personality development, communication, wellness and etiquette—making them one of the most comprehensive grooming systems in India.

A New Journey Begins

With this collaboration, aspiring candidates across India will have access to a grooming ecosystem designed with global standards in mind. As the official Pan-India Talent Partner for Femina Miss India Auditions, WIGP will play a key role in identifying, nurturing and elevating the next generation of Indian beauty ambassadors.

This partnership is more than just an operational announcement—it marks the coming together of two forces that have shaped India’s presence on international beauty platforms for decades. With Dr Neeleshwari A B at the forefront, the upcoming audition season promises to deliver exceptional talent, refined skills and renewed confidence across the country.
