Khatiwada has bagged the Multimedia award, making her way straight into the top 30 of Miss World Final 2018. She has been given the award “after careful deliberation” by “a panel of Miss World Multimedia Experts including Mr. Tang – deputy chief of Sanya Tourism.” The result was announced earlier today on Monday on the official Instagram handle of Miss World Organization. According the the organization, the decision has been made based on all social media platforms, audience engagement, creative content and influence. The other two finalists for the Multimedia award were Mexico’s Vanessa Ponce and Finali Galaiya of Kenya.
The 23-year-old architect, who was crowned Miss Nepal World in April this year, has also made the top 5 of Sanya tourism video award. Finaliya Galaiya (Kenya) bagged the award, closely followed by Peirui Mao (China PR). With Nepal in the third place, the fourth and fifth spots were secured by Dayanara Martinez (Puerto Rico) and Alisha Cowie (England), respectively.
Khatiwada is currently in China, representing Nepal, to compete with over 115 other contestants from all over the world. The final event is scheduled to take place on 8th of December. The reigning Miss World, Manushi Chhillar of India, will crown her successor at the end of the event.
