One of the major highlights of the session was when a fan asked the actress to share her thoughts on Miss Universe 2021 Harnaaz Sandhu's sartorial tribute. For those who don't know, Harnaaz, for her “finale walk as reigning Miss Universe '', wore a gown featuring pictures of Sushmita Sen and Lara Dutta, who won the title in 1994 and 2000, respectively. Harnaaz crowned her successor R'Bonney Gabriel, from the USA, at the Miss Universe 2022 finale in New Orleans. Sharing her thoughts on the “beautiful” tribute, Sushmita said, “Yes, I saw her gown. I think it's a beautiful tribute. I am waiting to give her a hug in person to thank her for it. Because she carried with her on such an important walk and moment…The legacy of her country. To see Lara [Dutta] and me there with her was like ‘yes'. So Harnaaz, if you are watching, the tightest hug awaits you in person, my darling. You made us proud and continue to make us proud.
