Priyanka was asked "what can a common man do to stop wars and communal riots across the world", to which she responded very elegantly "As a peace-loving lady, my heart trembles to hear the echo of anguished cry during war which has no solace and targets all humanity. I believe one must use their voice for kindness, mind for truth and heart for spreading love and peace. Humanity must unite to put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind."

The distinguished jury members included Sheena Bajaj, Dr Siddharth Bhargava, Dr Mickey Mehta and Dr Payal Dalal.

Her introduction round was spectacular where she highlighted "Despite failing multiple times to clear my CA and the world telling me to give up, I raged forward with fire in my heart, tenacity in my soul, and fierceness that is dependable and now I work as a Chartered accountant in a prestigious American university. From being fat-shamed to an international model and a humbled national pageant winner, today, as a trailblazer, I stand in front of you - flawed, but fearless, and empowered by my perfect imperfections!"
