Tanya Mittal Says She's Prettier Than Aishwarya Rai: "I Had Strange Dreams"

Social media influencer Tanya Mittal is currently one of the most talked-about contestants in ‘Bigg Boss 19'. Known for her fiery confrontations and bold statements, she has now stirred up buzz again after a throwback video resurfaced in which she compared herself to none other than Aishwarya Rai.

The video clip, originally from her 2022 Josh Talks session, shows Tanya opening up about her early dreams, her unconventional journey, and her rise in the beauty and business worlds.

Tanya Mittal's Childhood Dreams And Bold Claim:

In her talk, Tanya recalled having unusual dreams as a young girl. “I used to have strange dreams. I dreamt that Sushmita Sen had handed over her crown to me, and that I was more beautiful than Aishwarya Rai. But how could that ever happen?" she said.

Tanya further explained the environment she grew up in, describing the restrictions placed on her as a girl from a Baniya family. “You cannot step out after 6 pm, you absolutely cannot talk to boys on the phone, and apart from cooking, you shouldn't learn anything else in life. So, I became obsessed with the idea of being beautiful," she revealed.

Determined to change her circumstances, Tanya embarked on a journey of transformation. She eventually represented India on an international platform and went on to win the Miss Asia crown, a title India had not won in 12 years.

Education And Entrepreneurial Rise:

Interestingly, Tanya takes pride in the fact that her success story is not backed by a college degree. “Even today, when people ask me about my education, I very confidently say that I am only 12th pass and that I did not pursue graduation," she shared during the talk.

Beyond pageantry and reality television, Tanya has carved a niche for herself as a successful entrepreneur. At just 19 years old, she started her business venture, Handmade Love by Tanya, with only Rs. 500 in hand. What began as a small handbag line soon evolved into a lifestyle brand that now offers sarees and accessories as well.

Her journey from a small-town girl with big dreams to a businesswoman and reality TV personality continues to inspire many. With her stint in Bigg Boss 19, Tanya Mittal has once again placed herself at the center of conversations, proving that her boldness and determination are here to stay.
