Dazzling in poise and grace, Opal captured not only the crown but hearts across continents, outshining over 110 international contestants.
A Hero’s Welcome
After the glittering event in India, Opal returned to Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok on June 14, where she was greeted with a royal reception — from proud fans and family to Miss World officials and event partners TERO Entertainment. Social media in Thailand erupted in national pride, hailing her as the “Crown of Asia.”
A Cultural Bridge Between Nations
Before her departure, Opal was given a grand traditional farewell by the Telangana Government, with cultural performances and ceremonial honors that celebrated the deepening Indo-Thai bond. The event marked a blend of tradition, elegance, and diplomacy.
“From Hyderabad to Bangkok, this queen’s journey is pure inspiration,” one organizer remarked.

Opal, who hails from Chiang Mai and is known for her advocacy in youth education and climate action, now carries the Miss World platform into global humanitarian work.
Her win is seen not just as a victory for Thailand, but for the entire Asian region — a powerful statement on diversity, confidence, and women’s leadership on the world stage.
