  • Nehal clarified on air that she was crowned Miss Diva Universe 2018 and represented India at Miss Universe 2018, where she did not make the Top 20.
  • Her brother, Pranay Chudasama, posted an emotional Instagram story comparing the query to questioning an athlete who represents India and said his heart was in pain.
