Bhumika Arora

Bhumika Arora, a model, expressed in an interview that she used to believe she was "very unattractive." That was such an unusual confession, coming from somebody who has graced the runways of Paris, New York, Milan, and London Fashion Weeks. This famous model has secured several high-profile contracts, including work with Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Roberto Cavalli, and Stella McCartney.

Style.com named Bhumika Arora one of the "Top Ten New Faces of the Season" in March, while Vogue.com ranked her fourth in its "7 Moments We Loved Today" section, writing: "Our souls were taken by a new face that graced the Vera Wang catwalk: the gloomy, seductive, and covetously angular Bhumika."

However, Arora, 27, expressed that her appearance was not admired in her own country. At her school in Karnal, Haryana, her 5'11" height and petite 22-inch waistline caused her tremendous problems.. "I was teased since my height is unusual," she explains. Additionally, she shared that she had been taunted about her appearance, which many of her friends described as "guy-like." Fast forward to the present: today, Arora is a well-known worldwide supermodel. She is one of the very few Indian females to achieve international success.
