From Nowgaon to the National Stage: Jyoti Verma Wins VG Miss and Mrs. India Empress 2025 Central Zone

Born on February 1, 1983, Jyoti never expected her life to take this turn. “My life has changed completely after this pageant,” she says, still adjusting to her new reality as a titleholder. Quoting Eleanor Roosevelt, Jyoti says, “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”

 

The pageant opened doors Jyoti hadn’t imagined. She learned ramp walking, tried new dance forms, participated in various activities, and experienced professional photo shoots for the first time. Each day brought fresh challenges and discoveries about herself.

 

Working with mentors Binita Ma’am and Shweta Ma’am proved instrumental in her growth. “Superb teachers,” Jyoti calls them, crediting their guidance for helping her navigate this new world. The experience taught her skills she never knew she possessed.

 

“I learned so many new experiences… it was an amazing journey,” Jyoti reflects. What started as a pageant became something deeper – personal growth wrapped in friendships that will last beyond the competition. The connections she made with fellow participants have become genuine relationships.

 

Today, wearing her crown comes with purpose. Jyoti sees her platform as more than recognition – it’s an opportunity to encourage other women. “I want every woman to come ahead in any field and show their potential,” she explains. Her own journey from a small town in Madhya Pradesh to a national pageant proves this possibility.

 

“I believe a woman’s true crown is not just the one she wears on her head, but the confidence and courage she carries in her heart.  Responsibilities or marriage should never limit a woman’s dream — they should inspire her to dream even bigger. Every time one woman breaks a barrier, she opens doors for thousands of others to walk through with pride. My message to every woman is simple: believe in your voice, your vision, your worth, because nothing can stop you, once you choose to rise,” Jyoti shares.  

 

For Jyoti, success means creating a ripple effect. When other women see her story, she hopes they’ll recognize their own potential. Whether they’re in small towns or big cities, young or mature, every woman has something valuable to contribute.

Her message is simple but powerful: if she could transform her life through this experience, others can pursue their own dreams too.
