During the final question and answer round, Sandhu was asked what advice would she give to young women on the pressure they face. She answered, “The biggest pressure the youth is facing is to believe in themselves, to know that you are unique, and that’s what makes you beautiful. Stop comparing yourselves with others, and let’s talk about more important things that are happening worldwide. This is what you need to understand. Come out, speak for yourselves because you are the leader of your life; you are the voice of your own. I believed in myself, and that’s why I am standing here today.”
