BANGALORE BOY BAGS STARLIFE MR INDIA 2019 FIRST RUNNER UP TITLE

It is said that “if you work hard, you will eventually achieve your goal”, it is also said that “dreams do come true” and such was the case with Bangalore’s new face Abhinav Vishwanathan, an IT professional with an Engineering degree by Day and an exuberating, talented candidate who bagged the title of First Runner Up at Starlife Mr India 2019 by Night.
A model, theatre enthusiast and actor whose aspiration was to make it big and enter the world of glamour, finally got his break through months of hard work, perseverance and sheer dedication.
What started off as a dream became more of a reality when a close friend enlightened Abhinav about this pageant, taking her advice Abhinav registered for Starlife Mr India 2019 and was selected to appear in the first round of auditions that took place in Bangalore city. Abhinav was then selected to represent Karnataka along with 2 other candidates for Mr and Miss India in the list of selected 80.
After a month of preparation it was time for Abhinav to head to go chase that dream in the historic city of Agra. The temperature outside that 4 star hotel was no less than the heated competition inside. The competition looked intense, yet healthy at the same time and that’s what geared Abhinav to give his best till the end.
Through the course of the competition the candidates were judged on rounds like talent, introduction, walk and gesture and Question and answer. They were also judged on rounds based on photo shoots that took place in different attire, from Tuxedo’s, to swim wear, to a shoot in Ethic clothing at the Taj Mahal. However from 80 candidates only the top 30 finalists got to feature in the final shoot sporting Designer wear designed by Vipin Agarwal.
On the Eve of the Finale the top 30 finalists walked the Ramp in designer outfits by Vipin Agarwal and Vikas Jaiswal, the walk was choreographed and directed by Khizar Hussain, while the makeup was done by Manvi Mehta.
At the end of the pageant Dharam Savlani from Gujarat won the title of Starlife Mr India 2019 while Abhinav Vishwanathan of Bangalore won First Runner Up and Rehan Sonarkar bagged the place of Second Runner Up, culminating what was a star studded finale.
