*Talent   *Fashion  *Culture   *Networking   ​


Pageant tradition in New England  started in 2012 with efforts and expertise of Ruchika Arora in creative industry of design and fashion as a graduate of NIFT New Delhi India (National Institute of Fashion Technology). Her involvement in singing and theatre throughout school and also in college gave her right knowledge for this work. She has choreographed, directed or produced about 50 pageant/fashion events and theatre/cultural events, and has judged several pageants and talent shows in New England and New York. 


​​​​​​​The story began in Fall of 2010 when we started with first event in Massachusetts. Since then continued with several fashion shows, cultural events and glamorous fundraisers, and in August 2012 -we announced our pageant in New England first time including multiple states. Extraordinary array of western evening gowns, ethnic Indian showcase and spectacular talents were presented. Boston's top universities performed in groups. Classical music and dance experts presented a musical on stage. An example was set for several consecutive years where talent has remained the essence and contestants are highlights. Miss India New England brought excitement in our beautiful states, it also brought unique vibrant Indian celebrations being a giant fashion and networking platform. 


We resumed our event successfully in 2023 and had a grand cultural celebration at Double Tree Hilton in Andover MA. Like most people, to keep everyone safe during pandemic- we adapted virtual/hybrid mode. After our December 2019 pageant at Hilton Woburn, our girls participated at Nationals in Houston Texas in early 2020. Then there was a  pause due to pandemic. In year 2021, we were able to resume in hybrid mode, and again presented best of talent in different categories.


We aim to identify and support talented young Indian American girls/women and promote culture of India in USA for modern generations. We believe it to be a platform to enhance your network, and sometimes finding long lasting friendships. Our affiliation with 'Miss India USA/Worldwide' gives us opportunity to be part of world's largest pageant network specially designed for girls/women of Indian heritage and is running in USA for past 41 years. Therefore we can select contestants who want to go to National platform or further at International level.
