Srichchha Pradhan was crowned Miss World Nepal 2023 at the finale of the 27th edition of Miss Nepal held on 27th May 2023 at the Godavari Sunrise Convention Center, at Godawari, Lalitpur. Srichchha Pradhan is now preparing to represent Nepal at the 72nd Miss World.

Srichchha Pradhan is 25 years of age and hails from Kathmandu. She holds a bachelor’s degree in environmental studies from Bennington College in Vermont, USA. Pradhan is a big believer in leadership and collaborates and uplifts people around her.

As Miss World Nepal, Pradhan has been actively involved in a project known as ‘Deego Pranali‘, an initiative encompasses environmental conservation, child education, and women’s entrepreneurship. For her, beauty pageants are a fusion of knowledge, spirituality, and compassion. She considers female entrepreneurship as the secret to a flourishing economy for Nepal.

On winning the crown, Pradhan quoted, “This was always a platform for me first, a prestigious platform for positive actions. Like one of my friends once said, "It's not about surviving. It's about thriving. I'll be thriving in each and every moment to collaborate with you all and commemorate this title. And I am assured of your love and kind support.”

At the national competition, Pradhan presented a short speech on ‘women entrepreneurship’, speaking inspiring words for young people and women. With her reign and influence, Pradhan wishes to use the opportunities to the youth and contribute to the nation’s development with a fresh ideology.

Pradhan will definitely be a strong contender for the international crown with her strong advocacy, charming personality and stunning features. Nepal is yet to win its first Miss World crown. The 72nd Miss World will be held later this year or next year where Krystyna Pyszkova of Czech Republic will crown her successor at the end of the event finale.
